Looking for suggestions on books about declining America

[HughBeaumont]

4. Reading one now called "The Rich Don't Always Win" by Sam Pizzigati . . .

. . .. I'd call this a "must read" in the vein of Jacob Hacker's The Great Risk Shift and David Cay Johnston's Perfectly Legal & Free Lunch. An excellent synopsis of the time period from 1900-1970, where labor fought and made great strides against the Plutocrats and politicians from both parties feared the backlash of unions and the people.

Then came the mid-1970s conservative think tanks, which led to the glacial but highly effective arch-conservative purchase of U.S.A., Inc., starting with their inside puppet St. Ronnie. The End.
