A powerful indictment of America’s abandonment of human beings, and children in particular, in favor of corporations, this account exposes the child labor, indentured servitude, and child slavery that are undeniable parts of American history. Arguing that following the election of Ronald Reagan legislations began support corporations at the expense of the American people, this book demonstrates how this nation’s intellectual capital was squandered. Deregulation and lax enforcement caused unnecessary deaths to workers in many fields, but far greater are the numbers of deaths and disabilities to fetuses, babies, and children—numbers that will only increase until voters decide to stop the destruction of America and its children.
