This review is from: A Broken Covenant : The Rape of the American Middle Class (Paperback)

In A Broken Covenant: The Rape Of The American Middle Class, Stephen Rodnesky reveals how the average member of the American Middle Class has been systematically ripped off to the tune of thousands and thousands of dollars over the past two decades. Rodnesky explains the reason behind the dramatic decline of the income and wealth share of the middle class; the failing of current proposals to transform the tax code in the true best interests of the middle class; the long-term consequences from the currently pending efforts to eliminate the estate tax; and simple changes to the tax code that could rebalance the tax system while avoiding any necessity (and governmental temptation) to micromanage the American economy. A Broken Covenant is "must" reading for tax reform activists, governmental tax policy makers, and students of economics and political science.
