It requires a huge set of blinders nowadays to not notice that the United States of America is in trouble, both in terms of its economy and the freedom allowed (or not allowed) to its citizens. The "land of opportunity" has become the "land of government control." The wide freedoms allowed citizens of earlier years have shrunk through overregulation and a stunning government debt. How did this happen? Chris Marrou, who explained the Supreme Court's war on the constitution in his book "Supreme Arrogance," takes a look at what he believes are the ten major mistakes made by the U.S. in the past century that did most of the damage. Getting into wars that aren't legally wars, overtaxation, government giveaways and even President Woodrow Wilson's ego come in for criticism as Chris explains not only how these mistakes damaged the country but also how the mainstream media misstate the issues so that most people aren't even aware of the problems. Buy this book and find out why we are where we are today, and you'll be better prepared for the coming collapse and the hard work of getting back to the America that was the envy of the world.
