Building America's Main Street Not Wall Street

Every since the Wall Street crash of 1929, Americans have been bedeviled by what to do with their earnings to safeguard their future. The crashes of 1873, 1907, 1929 and 2008 show the weaknesses of a society that had seen most of its businesses come under the control of giant corporations whose shares are traded daily on Wall Street. The general public has learned the painful truth that Wall Street banks and firms only care about their profits with little or no regard for what will happen to our nation if they drop the ball. Unlike the crash of 1929, the net result of the crash of 2008 was government bailouts for the Wall Street Bums who also received bonuses for their failures as millions of American workers lost their jobs, life savings and homes. This raises many questions as to the wisdom of continuing to put most of our investment capital into Wall Street banks and firms. Steven Harvey's newest book dispels many myths by reintroducing us to the original American Dream, the vision of building communities of wealth. He tells us the story of an old beloved capitalist of the nineteenth century whose life's lessons can give us hope and prosperity in the twenty first century. Planting and growing wealth for your family right in your own backyard is the theme of this work. If you're ready to see the good side of American Capitalism this is the book to read, reread and plan you future from.
