In Search of the Wealth of Nations: Analysis of the American Experience

By K. Carlton Wilson

What is the Story of America? What is the American Dream? In today's world it seems that the real story of America is lost in the morass of divided opinions and conflicting ideologies. "In Search of the Wealth of Nations", is a book about the American Experience. It is a must read for all Patriots who seek to understand what it is that has made America the Greatest Nation the world has ever known ... Amidst all the criticisms that are leveled at America it is difficult to find a country in the world that has created more wealth for more people and allowed for more individual freedom and self expression than the United States of America.With specific attention to those criticisms, this book answers the questions; What is the proper role of government? What is the role of good citizens? What can ordinary people do to preserve their rights and freedoms to pursue their own happiness?It is claimed that in 1835 Alexis de Tocqueville said quote, "America is great because she is good. If America ceases to be good, America will cease to be great." Whether or not he actually said that is irrelevant, the comment is none-the-less true. Unfortunately today, it often appears that America is no longer so good. What was it that de Tocqueville saw in 1835? What is the real secret to American greatness? This book answers the arguments of Socialists/Progressives and makes the case for free market capitalism, individual property rights, limited government and private sector welfare. It makes the case for Individual Justice as opposed to Social Justice, it makes the argument against government intervention, and most of all, it make the case for Freedom, and Justice for all.
