This Fight Is Our Fight

the Battle to Save America's Middle Class

“This Fight is Our Fight”, by Elizabeth Warren is one of those books that everyone should read, regardless of political affiliation. I say that because the book is about the difficulties facing the middle class in this country. Liberals, or progressives, if you prefer, will appreciate the emphasis on identifying the great issues facing middle class Americans, and the government-led solutions to these problems as espoused by Senator Warren. For those on the conservative side of the political spectrum, who more than likely would oppose most government-led solutions, well, one of the best ways to counter an opposing viewpoint is to learn all one can about the opposition. Which would make the book a useful read for those of a conservative bent. And, being the cockeyed optimist that I am, maybe each side could find a shred of common ground here and there and start to address those middle class issues. Politicians are loathe to be seen as cooperating with the opposition, which is why all we get out of Washington these days is perpetual gridlock. I would hope that “This Fight is Our Fight” could be a beginning point for liberals and conservatives to end the gridlock and work together to solve the problems facing the middle class. Okay . . . in all candor . . . everyone knows there’s a Blutarsky’s chance of that happening, 0.0. I recommend the book, anyway.
