About this audiobook
Americans find themselves in genuine confusion and dismay concerning the actions of President Obama's administration, especially when it comes to the financial crisis and health care. Obama's reform packages, passed with great fanfare, ignore the most significant perils facing the United States. Roger D. Hodge makes the provocative case that substantive reform was never even on the table.
