Commoner Sense: The Working Person's Guide to America (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781491722732)

In "Commoner Sense", author Patrick J. Fornari, a no-nonsense average American working person, examines the United States' unique past, present, and possible future. Built on more than a decade of research condensed into an overview of the working person's role in America, Fornari's perspective lends credibility, importance, and a clear voice to the diminishing role of the American voter and worker in American politics. Commoner Sense addresses a variety of topics including slavery and racism, religious freedom, liberal utopian sensibility, American exceptionalism, the IRS, the economy, and Obamacare. It presents the ideas of our founding fathers, shows how those ideas are playing out in today's America, looks toward the future, and encourages each American to regain control of the country's destiny, which has been hijacked by an elite ruling class. Fornari's "everyman" life experience represents the much-neglected commonsense view of the government and country by America's working class. He details how "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" isn't just for the history books anymore; it's for the present and the future.
