If you wonder how in the world did our economy take such a downturn with the outsourcing of America, then you should read the book: Take This Job and Ship It written by Senator Byron L. Dorgan. There is so much said about our economy, the effects of outsourcing that it is hard to really know what is going on. I purchased this book because I'm curious but I definitely don't know enough about what is going on.
Senator Byron Dorgan talks about how corporate greed and brain-dead politics are selling out America. If you care about your job and what is happening to America, then this is a must read. Chapter 12 outlines what you as a citizen can do to make your voice heard.
