Book Overview

A Nation on Borrowed Time - by Joseph L. Arvin and Scott A Newton

Was the financial meltdown that started in late 2008 merely an unpleasant swing in the natural ebb and flow of macroeconomics, or was it an early warning sign of a more severe crisis in the future?

A Nation on Borrowed Time is a revealing, logical and insightful look at the unchecked economic decline of America.  Authors Arvin and Newton present a compelling case about the root cause of this decline, its origins, and the solutions.  This critical message, which is being virtually ignored in the national discussion on the economy, is one that every American citizen needs to hear.

Reviews...

“If you are puzzled or troubled by the faltering state of our American experience, read A Nation on Borrowed Time. This book brings to bear Joseph Arvin’s decades of hands-on experience as a high-tech manufacturer in the international marketplace. Offering common sense ways to reclaim America’s prominence and economic health, this book should be required reading for the political leadership entrusted with guiding our nation through a dangerous period.”

“A Nation on Borrowed Time reports on the troubling depth of the economic challenges facing America, while presenting very clear, real world strategies for reversing the decline. Arvin and Newton initiate a discussion on the American economy from a perspective that the economic experts and “talking heads” have failed to acknowledge. Finally, a look at America’s economic problems that isn’t mired in the wringing of hands and finger pointing which does nothing to change the future.”

“A Nation on Borrowed Time provides a clear, well written narrative on the contributing factors that have led to economic decline in America. The authors also present a refreshing view of how the decline can be reversed through a forward-looking, balanced approach to increasing the productive capacity of the economy.”
