About the Book

The book describes a disconnect existing between the electorate and the political establishment. That disconnect becomes apparent to me from discussions with voters while evaluating a run for political office during the 2014 election cycle. Those discussions are the subject matter of the book. Voters are angry and frustrated at the unresponsiveness of their elected officials. They feel their votes do not count and erroneously conclude voting is a waste of time and abstain from voting. Voters fail to understand voting is the way to keep unresponsive politicians out of a job. That level of anger may become the foundation for civil unrest. Politicians act only to protect special interest groups and their financial interest at the expenses of constituents' wellbeing. As a result, the middle class is decimated thus increasing the ranks of the poor. That is the basis for anger and frustration among constituents. Two candidates for the presidency are saying our government is rigged against the majority of Americans. These candidates are confirming what the American people already know, that our government is not a government of the people, by the people and for the people, but rather a government of politicians, by politicians and for politicians. Corrupt and inept professional politicians are controlled by special interest groups and could care less about constituents or our country; they are only concerned about staying in power to continue fattening their bank accounts from bribes they received from special interest groups. This political disconnect is very apparent on economic issues. The electorate sees their middle class status challenge by lack of high paying job opportunities, which have been moved to China and other overseas locations. Jobs available are low paying or part-time jobs incapable of sustaining middle class status. Consequently, Americans do not like what they see thus adding fuel to their anger. They see the writing on the wall indicating poverty is on the horizon. While constituents focus on the need to create high paying jobs politicians talk about abortion and gay rights. Republicans are in favor of repealing Obama Care because it eliminates full time jobs and raises insurance premiums and deductibles thus denying healthcare coverage except in catastrophic situations. It is essential to recognize the need for a workable fair healthcare law to protect and benefit all Americans. High paying job opportunities are important to sustain middle class status and provide upward mobility for those in poverty. Abortion and gay rights are of lesser or no importance to the great majority of voters. The problem is most politicians do not have a clue on what is necessary to generate high paying jobs. My experience as an engineer gives me an understanding of what is required to work in a technologically complex industrial environment. Based on that experience, I list key elements of a high paying job creation policy in the book along with ideas on how to implement those essential elements. These include: Education, Health Care, Job Creation, Retirement Security, Tax Reform, Immigration Reform, Energy, and Regulatory Agencies Overhaul.
