In China's War on the American Economy, author George Koeninger explores how manufacturing suffers under America’s onerous regulatory climate.

All too often, manufacturing consultant and author Koeninger has seen hard-working employees lose their jobs to workers in another country. This loss of wealth and human potential is a disaster, Koeninger states. In his bold and important book, China's War on the American Economy, he outlines how manufacturing is one of the pillars of wealth in a country, and why without it, the financial foundations start to crumble.

Written in clear, forceful prose, Koeninger’s book suggests that America’s manufacturing policy has created a loss of status for America in the world. He suggests that by leveling the playing field, manufacturing wealth can survive and thrive, provide good-paying jobs with health and insurance benefits and pay the necessary taxes needed for the government to provide for its peoples. The author also shows readers how they can get involved and attack this issue at the ground floor.
