Produktbeschreibung
Our country has been built on numerous cultural ideas that no longer exist today. Twilight of the Idols: An American Story explains how the foundational principles of our society have been and are being eroded by a single root cause. A cause that has grown in a completely bi-partisan way under both parties since the 1980s. While our wealth has tripled since the 1980s, 99 percent of families have experienced a net decline in their income, spending power, and savings and we are seeing the first generation in American history where a majority of children will have a lower socioeconomic standing than their parents. The American Dream is dying on our watch. Twilight of the Idols: An American Story endeavors to deliver two things: to make this root cause accessible to everyone and to propose solutions that the American people, not its leaders, can act on. This is a book for Republican, Democrat, and Independent Americans who want a country where their children can have the same shot at the American Dream that they did.

Autorenporträt
Brayden W.B. Olson isn't your typical political author. As an inventor, his work became the recipient of a National Science Foundation grant for education technology now used by more than 50 universities. As an entrepreneur, he was selected as a Fortune magazine "Startup Idol" and is the youngest member ever admitted to Seattle Entrepreneurs' organization. As a civic activist, his work and writing is fueled by firsthand experience growing up without resources, fighting for his American Dream and then witnessing the political and economic changes that are closing that door on our next generation.
