What foreign country has the power to send America crashing
into a recession? Why is the USA still dangerously dependent on
oil, when viable energy alternatives have existed for decades? Who
made the call that we should return to nuclear energy-and then took
a high-paying position with a nuclear company? Which youth group
was a spawning ground for many contemporary power mongers? What
lobbyists and special-interest groups are running the show on
Capitol Hill-and exactly what tools of persuasion are they
using?
Melissa Rossi answers these questions and more in this timely and
topical guide to who''s pulling the strings behind the scenes of
American politics. This latest edition of Rossi''s popular What
Every American Should Know. . . shows Americans what is going on
behind the scenes and how they can counterbalance the influence of
a small, powerful elite to put the power back where it should be-in
the hands of the people.
