Title: Shooting Ourselves in the Foot.
Description: Boston, Houghton Mifflin, 1985. 1st ptg. VG in VG DJ. DJ chipped. "Nuclear power in the U.S. is dead, not because it is dangerous .but because it is not financeable.". A Fortune 500 CEO gives some irreverent observations: "The obtuseness of recent actions of American automobile company managements shows they have not faced up to the new world order; until they do, they will suffer without government bailouts." "Unions have won their share of the economic pie. The old battle is over, but meanwhile someone stole the pie--international competitors." If there is a common thread linking our follies, it is that of pursuing a worthy purpose in a narrrow-minded way until it leads us right out the window. The next appointee to the Supreme Court should not be a lawyer. The law is too precious to be left to the lawyers anymore.
