Drawing upon a wealth of statistical and researched data, President Reagan's Conservative Fiscal Policy criticizes economic models that treat labor as no more unique or differentiated a commodity than organge juice, and question the value of programs to help the unemployed in the Reagan era that targeted those job-seekers who needed help the least. Stressing that discrimination has been severely underplayed rather than regarded as a primary cause of African American unemployment, President Reagan's Conservative Ficscal Policy decries America's failure to break a vicious cycle of poverty, crime, and unemployment among African Americans and meticulously dissectes what did not work for the benefit of future efforts to combat this social problem. Highly recommended. -- Willis M. Buhle The Midwest Book Review
