Everyone may agree that America is still the greatest country in the world. However, some may also argue that America is on the decline. We are confronting huge problems such as government gridlocks, budget deficits, national debt, loss of jobs, energy dependence, discrimination and terrorism. This book helps us to identify all these and other problems, and offers solutions. But we must have serious dialogue and debate before we can offer viable and concrete solutions. It is my hope that this book will help us to reinvigorate these efforts so we, as citizens of this great nation, can reclaim our rights to help shape our own destiny. With this book, you will also be able to learn some basic Chinese characters, and get some advice on stock investment.
