Put aside your political differences, this book is not about that. Both sides lost. The year is 2008 and the United States as well as most of the countries has undergone a radical change. The new government in the United States has declared a Three Strikes You're Out Program. With the new government there is no more need for programs like food stamps, welfare, Medicare or the penal system. Over population is no longer a problem. Long gone are the liberal and conservative parties of old, a new breed rules the country today. When the American people start to question and emotions surface, the country wakes up and looks about in horror at what they've done.
