The Looming Extinction of the Working Class

by Joel Kotkin

An entrenched oligarchic class increasingly controls politics, the media, and big business in America. This oligarchy’s interests and actions are more and more opposed to the prosperity of the working and middle this oligarchy is making them poorer, weaker, and their lives less stable. And it is aligned with America’s political class, which refuses to see that American democracy will collapse without a healthy working and middle class. America will not survive this emerging neofeudal economic order of limited mobility and sky-high inequality.

A wonderful booklet - quickly digestible. A must for understanding the Class War in America and the treatment of the working class. No party represents the laborers anymore.
