Description: Political insider Matt Towery documents the frustrations many Americans feel as they have been abandoned by a political system that has lined the pockets of select businesses, refused to consider a Fair Tax, ignored immigration and the impact of globalism, chosen to spend money and lives in places across the world, all while facing one of the greatest economic and monetary crises in our history. Towery takes dead aim at the Washington Establishment--from media, to lobbyists, to the top leaders in both parties. He sheds valuable and often controversial light on why we're fed-up with national politics and how the American Presidency has devolved over the past fifty years into a state of delusional paranoia. Backed by unparalleled and as yet unrevealed polling data, Towery argues that the integrity of our political system is threatened in ways never before seen, perhaps forever changing our country and its democracy.--From publisher description.
