The Maximum Wage

A Common-Sense Prescription for Revitalizing America - By Taxing the Very Rich

By Sam Pizzigati

Blurbs

More than 5 decades ago, in 1942, President Franklin D. Roosevelt advanced the most daring legislative proposal of the entire New Deal era: a maximum wage on the incomes of America's wealthy.

Roosevelt's maximum wage proposal, argues author Sam Pizzigatti, deserves a careful reconsideration. A maximum wage may be just what America needs to re-energize our lackluster democracy, jump start an ailing economy, and throttle the envy and grasping that so characterize contemporary American Life.

What People are Saying...

We Americans haven't had a real debate about taxing the rich in years. That debate is long overdue, and The Maximum Wage is one book that just might spark it.

— Greg Tarpinian, Director, Labor Research Associatino

An excellent book - and must reading for everyone concerned about American's future well-being.

— Ravi Batra, best-selling author of The Great Depression of 1990
