But today, Gorsek has a new story and a message every American needs to hear. Unfortunately, his updated story is proof positive that no recovery is coming, no middle class jobs rebound is possible.
My new book, “The Murder of the Middle Class” paints a picture of economic devastation throughout America.
Because of big government overreach, onerous taxes, debt, regulations, lawsuits and increased Internal Revenue Service attacks on business, the odds of starting a new business and succeeding have been badly damaged.

He grew his small company into the most successful online vitamin retailer in the world. His company became one of the few in history to earn “INC 500 Hall of Fame” status. For 15 years, Gorsek’s company grew at a remarkable 50 percent a year pace, and by thousands of percent over 15 years.
