The Greatest Country in the World

The purpose of this book is not to denigrate America, its history, or what it stands for. Rather, I hope to shine a light on some lesser-known American history and compare today's American society to other countries around the world. I will also trace the history of America's national debt from the founding of the nation to the present-day (decade by decade) so you can see for yourself when the nation's spending spree finally led to the perilous financial future America is facing. Most Americans aren't very interested in history but it's important to remember history is not just a study of the past, it's an explanation of the present. President Truman said, "The only thing new in this world is the history that you don't know". After reading this book, I hope you'll learn something new about our nation's history and perhaps change the way you think about the federal government and our great country.
