- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5The primary focus of the book is on President Obama's policies of transforming American to be more socialistic.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5First half of this book was great....informative, insightful, and intriguing. The second half read more like an Economics class textbook. I'm sure that excites some people, but not really me. Overall just an average book, and I expected a little more from Dick Morris.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I already knew about most of the issues in the book, but I learned a lot more about them from the detailed data provided. There were two things that I didn't realize that are appalling.Many corporations have Islam advisory boards to help the company do business according to Sharia law. In the United States, American law should prevail. The book includes specifics about companies and the advisors they use, some of whom are known terrorists.Post-traumatic stress disorder is a major problem for veterans returning from war, which isn't surprising. What is surprising is the Veterans Administration response: the funding and programs for mental illness are negligible compared to the funding and programs for physical problems. Of course, soldiers who have been shot and lost limbs need treatment and rehabilitation but so do soldiers who have been damaged by the stress of war. The best thing about the book is that the authors include action steps. The number and severity of problems can seem so overwhelming that we can become discouraged and think there's nothing we can do. Knowing specific steps to take can help turn this country around.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I confess that I was not able to make it through this book. I am a libertarian who is very sympathetic with Morris's main points - that Obama, if he gets his way, will turn the US into a much more socialistic nation a la France and Canada. But I find much of the book a bit too partisan for my tastes. For instance, Morris goes on for a while about the travesty and bad economic sense of the current bailouts; I couldn't agree more! But Morris lays all of the blame at the feet of the Obama camp... even though Bush was the one who got things rolling! (And on the chapters dealing with how we got into the financial crisis of '08/'09,Morris is quite blatantly careful not to menton that the entire housing bubble started with Bush's zeal for "affordable housing for all." In other words, democrats and republicans share quite equal blame for the direction we are headed, and I can't take Morris seriously because he only recognizes the guilt of one party. It makes it seem like....he is....partisan with more interest in stumping than analysis. There are plenty better books out there, like Housing Boom and Bust (Sowell) and Failure of Capitalism (Posner). At least those authors are even-handed and don't seem to have a partisan ax to grind.
