Locked in the Cabinet

Written by the twenty-second Labor Secretary of the United States Robert Reich, Locked in the Cabinet appears to be written with imposing goals and intentions. That is, to bridge the widening gap among the prolific and the poor.Robert Reich is a friend of condition United States President chronicle Clinton for 25 years and ended having extremely argue views.He turned out to be a disillusioned member of Clintons cabinet. He pointed out the failure of Clintons disposition to fulfill its intended aims and roles for the reach of its constituents.The keep back of account was packaged equal a journal with entries with their specific dates. The journal was go out on the four year sweep up of the stolon term of Bill Clinton. The book displays a fragmentary-like form of a routine account with the specified time when the guinea pig occurred. In this book, he used a string of metaphors to present his points in a creative way, perhaps.In the book, Clinton was treated with hesitat ion. Reich did non deliberately stated President Bill Clinton in the book. He would refer to a certain Bill who, he said, his longtime(prenominal) friend. He was, perhaps, in addition considering their friendship small-arm criticizing the lead of his very own keep out friend.It is commendable that Reich aims for bridging the gap between the rich and poor. He upset his being a liberal who has always been ready to strife for the rights of their constituents.For him, being liberal is magnanimous an individualistic his rights. He stressed the importance of self-aggrandizing such because it is the main role and belong of the brass instrument, anyway.As a liberal constancy secretary, he advocated the rights of every worker in particular their right for a wage ontogeny. He however tried to convince alliance owners and manufacturers notto use their powers against the striking workers. These workers are moreover airing their rights and sentiments, in the first place.Per taining to the legitimate role and functions of the government in a private enterprise economy, he stressed out the role of the government on giving the outright benefits that a worker should ready.He pushed for wage increase among the workers in the United States. He stressed the importance of some sort of government intervention in pushing for the rights of the workers. point if Clinton is his longtime and miserly friend, it did not founder him in voicing out his criticisms towards Clintons unsatisfactory leadership through his book.He said that Clintons administration did not know what should be prioritized and seemed to for thwart what the part of his coming to Washington. He related that Clinton had the leadership but did not have the enough courage to take inwardness what is shell for the people. But then, his disappointment over Clintons policies and administration has always been overshadowed by his sum towards his longtime friend.He views contemporary American polic ies as a disaster which does not actually respond to the actual take of their constituents. He bluntly criticized everything he thinks not in the right place.I all agree with his concept of liberalism. He cares for the arc of every individuals rights. He put forth the importance of giving everyone of what is due to him. As a statesman, it just right for him to have the heart for the crush and not for the oppressor. He has showed concern for the wages of the people.It is just that he was locked in the cabinet. He implied that limitations of being a member of a cabinet. It might appear that cabinet members have all the power to take effect pro-people policies and actions, but then, they are subjected to the bureaucracys approval.He used many profound themes in his book. This somewhat gave a flatus on the sharp opinions that he wants to present.He admitted that he is indeed a discomfited secretary who wished that everyone would hear his and the societys plight.Reichs book is re ally informative. It is surprise how he is able to present such controversial revelations given that Clinton is his very close friend. He presented his point bravely leave no missed point behind.I guess he just showed an accusing setting of the situation of Clintons administration and the United States government system in general, particularly to the labor sector.With no doubt, he showed, through his book, his deep concern for people.On the other hand, the book, behind its impressing underlying themes, also received criticisms, perhaps from those who were behind the administration of Clinton. They strikeed that Reichs work was just like a fictional work and even claimed that it is a mere propaganda. They added that Reichs claim were not realistic at all.Well, I guess, they just have to see the big picture. I believe that Reich has noble goals and aims as he presented his points in the book.Undeniably, Reichs book deserves a commendation. He did his work sound as the labor sec retary rubbish for the workers rights.People in the government should get a copy of his book immediately. honorable mentionReich, R. (1997).
