Description

Your guided tour to America's employment crisis, the title says it all. Where Did the Jobs Go-and How Do We Get Them Back? is a clear, nonpartisan, surprisingly entertaining look at our nation's current joblessness mess and how we can get ourselves working again. Written by Scott Bittle and Jean Johnson, authors of the breakout bestseller Where Did the Money Go?, this essential primer addresses the most serious problem facing Americans today with intelligence, refreshing candor, and sparkling wit, enabling voters to separate the facts from the politicians' hot air and political spin.
