Written in a journalistic, expose' style, this is the book that helped initialize and inspire the "Occupy Wall St." and "We are the 99%" Movements, and it correctly predicted the start-up of these movements, which occurred within several months of this book's publication. It chronicles the ongoing demise of the US middle class, the unemployment and foreclosure crises, and what pastor Bern calls, "the ticking time bomb if inequality". It proposes a myriad of solutions, from ending the 'war on drugs' to ending the military occupations overseas, to passing a proposed "Unconditional Equality Amendment" to the US Constitution. It predicted the need for free health care for every citizen years before 'Obamacare' was passed into law. The book also demands free higher education for everyone without qualification, and the author shows America an easy way to pay for it while actually decreasing the deficit. This Christian-based book is a must-read for everyone who thinks America is headed in the wrong direction. Before there was Occupy Wall St., before "the 99%" and Anonymous, before Ferguson, Mo. And Freddy Gray, before Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown and Eric Garner, before the 'Arab Spring', Syria and Palestine, there was this book, the book that helped inspire it all!
