Demise of Heathkit

[Neil Morrison]

A good starting point to understand the economic climate surrounding the
decline of Heath is

"America : What Went Wrong?" by Donald L. Barlett, James B. Steele

Here is a review:
'Asking the question, "what went wrong," two Pulitzer Prize-winning authors
present a sweeping critique of the last two decades of American history,
concluding that short-sighted greed in business and government has
undermined the American dream.'

and for more information

America : Who Really Pays the Taxes? by Donald L. Barlett, James B. Steele
America : Who Stole the Dream? by Donald L. Barlett, James B. Steele
Great American Tax Dodge : by James B. Steele, Donald L. Barlett

These guys are newspaper reporters who have analysed the reality behind the
political posturing. It's quite an eye opener to read these, and certainly
explains why you may feel that you are now working harder but earning less
real money than ever.

It's hard not to come to the conclusion that the founding fathers were far
wiser than is believed when they put the clause in the constitution that
prohibited a federal income tax.

Regards,

Neil
