In these times,
change is not an option.
It's an imperative.
Born during the Great Depression,
Aaron Jaffe has lived his own
American dream.
His immigrant father told him:
“I’m laying the foundation for
you, so you can build the first
floor and rise in society. Your
children will build the second
floor, and so on.”
However, Jaffe writes based
on four decades of public service
as a legislator, judge and
regulator, unless Americans take
action, we will have a harder and
harder time keeping our
footing on the same floor
of the house.
And that house is
the American dream.
