Advance praise for the writing in this book: "Thomas Eddlem is a fastidious researcher and gifted journalist." - William Norman GriggThomas R. Eddlem combines original research with his journalism background to produce essays and research cited by national radio talk shows such as the Michael Savage show and national publications such as Investor's Business Daily. Published in more than 25 different periodicals, this book is the compilation of his best essays, 56 essays and 10 short poems in 512 pages in all, and includes many bon mots such as: "When a politician says the Constitution is a 'living document, ' he invariably means it should be a 'dead letter.'""Politicians just declare a 'war' when they want to appear to be serious about solving a problem without actually doing anything about it.""The redefinition of words is where the dumbing down of our society really begins, and where the most powerful kind of lies are told to the American people." "The practicality of libertarianism is rooted in the belief that government is dumb. Government is incompetent to solve most of our cultural ailments.""Even an imbecile can figure out a gun. Trump seems to think that a gun is some kind of magic thunder stick too complicated for four-fifths of the nation's college-educated teachers to figure out without some mysterious and intensive training, either 'military or special, ' by gnostics from within the rectum of government."If you want to be challenged in your views on politics and economics from an unbending journalist and researcher who doesn't fit any tidy left-right ideological mold, this is the book for you.
