May 23, 2009 (PRLEAP.COM) Entertainment News
TARP Town U S A - the new book by ESSENCE bestselling author D T Pollard is released by Book Express.

The United States experienced the emergence of an economic crisis in the last quarter of 2008 that was the worst since the Great Depression. It quickly became evident that the cause of this financial meltdown was a perfect storm of multiple factors including irresponsibility, greed and lax oversight. Wall Street executives built an empire on a foundation of risky subprime home loans that crumbled when home foreclosures skyrocketed.

Class warfare and anger at irresponsible actions by Wall Street investment bankers roiled the public as billions of taxpayers' dollars were committed to bail out the same people that brought down the economy.

Some hardworking citizens found themselves living in foreclosure riddled neighborhoods and tent cities that the author has labeled – TARP Towns - after the Troubled Assets Relief Program approved by Congress in October of 2008.

ESSENCE® bestselling author D T Pollard graduated Summa Cum Laude at the top of his class in marketing from business school. D T embarked upon a 28-year career in sales for some of the world's largest corporations. Combining his education, experience and rural roots he expresses a unique view on the economic crisis that exploded onto the scene in 2008 and describes how that financial downturn may save the United States of America from itself.
