American Made Why: Making Things will Return Us to Greatness / Dan Dimicco
246 Pages

This non-fiction book takes the premise that the reason the United States is not recovering from the last recession is that we no longer have a solid manufacturing based due to a mistaken attachment to the notion of free trade.  The author surmises that as long as the government doesn't respond to the unfair trade tactics practiced by China  and others our manufacturing companies will continue to try to move manufacturing overseas although it is not logical to do so in the long run.  An interesting book but also depressing since it states we need strong leadership to turn things around and there doesn't seem to be any leadership in the offing with our current government.
