The book provides an objective analysis presenting data for both Democratic and Republican administrations on key economic metrics such as GDP growth, the national debt, job creation, stock market performance and more.

In conducting his research, Mr. Miller was struck by how different the facts were in comparison to impressions he had formed based on claims from the two major parties.

S. politics, the economy and economic justice.
