Reaganism & the Death of Representative Democracy

"Walter Williams shows how Reagan and his foremost disciple George W. Bush have created a plutocracy where the United States is no longer a government of the people, by the people, and for the people, but it is ruled by the wealthiest individuals and corporate America. Williams urges Americans to move from political apathy and draw aside the power curtain to see the politicians and the corporations lurking there - and to see the dangers they represent to the American way of life."--Jacket.

First sentence: During the second half of the 1990s, the American economy performed at a pace comparable to the first twenty-five years of the postwar era, with high growth, low unemployment and inflation, and a remarkable 3 percent productivity growth rate.
