Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Copyright 2002 by Charlotte A. Twight. Third printing; number-line beginning with 3. From the author of the 1975 classic, "America's Emerging Fascist Economy," comes this in-depth analysis of the subtle and not so subtle maze of control over Americans by their government. Matte black boards, bold red metalllic spine titles, light shelf wear. Pages near fine; no writing. Bind fine, square. Original pictorial wrapper, light shelf wear; unclipped 26.95, protected in new clear sleeve. Jacket design by Sarah K. Delson of bold black titles over white b.g. with red, white blue stars stripes motif over linked chain motif at front and back. Very thorough bibliographical chapter notes section of 70 pages and a detailed 14-page index. Contents: "Acknowledgments; Chapter 1. The Evolution of Dependencce; Chapter 2. The Universal Tactic; Chapter 3. Social Security: Guaranteeing Dependence; 4. Income Tax Withholding: The Infrastructure of Dependence; 5. Public Education: Imprinting the Next Generation; 6. Health Care Controls: Exploiting Human Vulnerability; 7. Systemic Federal Surveillance of Americans; 8. Evisceration of the Rule of Law; 9. Designing Dependence, Acquiring Control; Chapter Notes, and, an Index." A compelling set of arguments raising serious questions about the freedom of thought and action in America. Charlotte Twight proves the loss of self-reliance in the past century has not been accidental; it is bipartisan and accelerating. Twight reveals the tactics to expand federal authority and evidences this with legislation, Supreme Court decisions, and presidential orders. Independence has eroded in our nation, leaving scant activities the centralized government does not attempt to manipulate and tax. A counter-revolution to the our God-bestowed rights is being attempted - one so profound that few imagine being free of taxes and welfare. "Dependent on D.C." explains how we have been coaxed, cajoled and threatened to avoid resisting this expansion. Charlotte Twight reveals the magnitude of maturity required to reverse this spiral into helplessness. Americans need to consider the future of their individual sovereignty in a country originating with the ideals of freedom. Charlotte Twight is Professor of Economics at Boise State University, holds a degree in law, and is the author of "America's Emerging Fascist Economy". 422 pages. Insured post. Size: 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" Tall.…
