The Audicity Of Help
Obama's Economic Plan and the Remaking of America
by John F. Wasik

The promises. The plan. The results.

Barack Obama was elected president during the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression. Not since FDR has the Oval Office been given such a clear mandate to fix an ailing economy. The Audacity of Help astutely explores how Obama's campaign promises compare with what Congress ultimately passed, describing the initiatives the President has been able to achieve as well as those yet to be realized.

President Obama has taken quick and decisive action to enact an economic stimulus package strong enough t address problems of historic proportions. What does this new package mean for american families, businesses, investors, and taxpayers?

The Audacity of Help unrolls the blueprints and looks at how the packages passed by Congress and signed into law by President Obama will affect healthcare, education, the environment, energy, taxes, and more. The book includes analysis of sectors and industries that will benefit, as well as those that will not.

Wasik's conclusions are firmly grounded in a comprehensive and enlightening analysis of the final package. Extensive study and interviews with experts from each economic sector support his analysis.
