OBAMANOMICS by Timothy P. Carney (unabridged) is presented by Blackstone Audio and comes with what is perhaps the best audiobook app available (see FEATURES, below).

“Obamanomics is conservative muckraking at its best…an indispensable field guide to the Obama years” (Jonah Goldberg, LA Times columnist)

Global-warming regulations, sweetheart deals for Wall Street, the nationalization of the automakers, and President Obama’s unprecedented spending spree—it’s an all-out assault on regular Americans’ pocketbooks, claims Carney, and only good for “Friends of Barack”: the campaign donors, the lobbyists, and the well connected.

Self-contained, this audiobook app is perfect for your commute, on a trip, or while relaxing. Based on a library-quality recording, this app was built especially for your iPhone and iPod Touch. No unreadable text, no endless scrolling on a tiny screen. The audio is of higher-than-normal quality, making for a great listening experience that will not tire your ears or grate on your nerves.

NOTICE: This app includes the exact same 5-star recording offered elsewhere at much higher prices. It was professionally recorded by Blackstone Audio’s Earphones®-winning narrator Tom Weiner. You are not buying yet another amateur or volunteer narration. No clicks, background noises, throat clearing, mispronunciations, tinny voices or monotones will be found here.

Sweetheart deals for Wall Street, the nationalization of the automakers, global-warming regulations, and President Obama’s unprecedented spending spree are an all-out assault on regular Americans’ pocketbooks.

In Obamanomics, Timothy P. Carney shows how the economic corruption of President Obama’s Washington is far beyond political business as usual. From a free-spending stimulus package that was a treasure trove for Obama-friendly corporate interests and lobbyists, to the revolving door between Wall Street and the Obama administration, to putting the unions in the driver’s seat of GM and Chrysler, Obamanomics tells it all. And the worst part is that the American taxpayers have to foot the bill—whether they like it and voted for it or not.
