Story4.5 out of 5 stars 378
The bastard step-child of Milton Friedman and Anthony Bourdain, Socialism Sucks is a bar crawl through former, current, and wannabe socialist countries around the world. Free-market economists Robert Lawson and Benjamin Powell travel to countries like Venezuela, Cuba, Russia, and Sweden to investigate the dangers and idiocies of socialism - while drinking a lot of beer.

The host of Fox News Channel’s Tucker Carlson Tonight offers a blistering critique of the new American ruling class, the elites of both parties, who have taken over the ship of state, leaving the rest of us, the citizen-passengers, to wonder: How do we put the country back on course?

Best book I've read on the real political crisis
Reviewed: 03-22-19
For 30 years I've been a student of thinking in terms of worldview... the big picture that makes sense of the details of our life. Politics is one piece of the worldview puzzle, seeking the best answer to the question of how government should work. The "Ship of Fools" is a compelling analysis outlining why our government is not being responsive to the people who elected them. For too many years many of those in power have seen themselves as a ruling Elite instead of public servants. Carlson Tucker gives example after example illustrating this undeniable fact. This book needs to be shared with millions of our fellow citizens!

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 129
In a book that will shatter the complacency of establishment conservatives, David Horowitz shows how Bill Clinton's generation, having mastered the art of political war, has spent the last 10 years clobbering the conservatives in and out of government. The best-selling author of Hating Whitey and Other Progressive Causes has the strategy to fight back.

Dinesh D'Souza, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller America, is back with this darkly entertaining deconstruction of Hillary Clinton's flawed character and ideology. From her Alinskyite past to her hopes for America's progressive future, the presumptive Democratic nominee is revealed to be little more than a political gangster intent on controlling the nation's wealth.
