Howard Mick worked fifty-two years in the legal field, retiring twelve years ago. After serving as an Army reservist, he joined a leading Kansas City law firm in 1959, where he specialized in business law, including public stock offerings, mergers and acquisitions, and bank regulation. His work, particularly in the banking sector, earned him recognition in Best Lawyers in America.
For over forty years, Howard has voiced concerns about America’s fiscal policies and the growing national debt. He initially expressed these views through letters to local newspapers and major publications like The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal. To more effectively communicate his insights, he decided to write a book that explores the overlooked aspects of fiscal policy in recent decades.
Howard believes that voters today need a clear understanding of how these policies have shaped the national debt and wealth distribution. Drawing on his extensive legal experience, Howard aims to provide readers with the crucial knowledge needed to navigate and influence the future of America's fiscal landscape.
