Publisher's summary

The US will be celebrating its 250th independence in a couple of years, and we have existed as a region for more than 400 years. We should be very proud of this fact, and although there have been many changes in our country over its history, I am still very proud of it. I must say that despite all the nonsense on social media and mainstream, entertainment news that we hear about our presidential candidates that I am actually very happy that we have two great candidates campaigning and vying for victory in this coming election. In my lifetime, I haven't seen much change politically in the US as we have little reason to make drastic shifts in our government. The framers of the Constitution built something that will last, and it is working today and will be working long after everyone crosses over who is reading this. This election will be decided by the female voting populace as they make up 70% of the registered voters in the US and their numbers for turnouts to elections are nearly as high. Both candidates are successful and fairly well-educated, and we could spend a great deal of time criticizing them for what they have done in the past. But, that is a waste of time, and we are all getting enough of that in our daily lives. In this book, I discuss the phenomenon of polarization that we have seen globally and why I think it's occurring; I speak about the fatal flaws of the former Trump Administration and the current Biden Administration, that is, behavior during the pandemic and weaponizing the dollar. I also talk about issues surrounding the increased number of conflicts that we have seen globally, why they are occurring, and measures that should be taken to mitigate them. I talk over concerns facing all Americans, like food, education, and job security, as well as Chomsky's analysis of the first Trump Administration. Finally, I deliberate about the future of the US, our trade relationship with China, and our need to increase trade in combination with dropping trade barriers. I think President Biden got thrown under the bus by the Democratic Party and isn't getting proper medical treatment, but there is a possibility that it could all be an act as it would be a lot harder to not elect Harris if President Biden steps down and she becomes a sitting president. Will you be voting your head or your heart? Historically, most Americans vote their pocketbooks as we have come to expect that all politicians lie and subconsciously seek more freedom and safety as our ancestors who migrated here did, meaning less government. Regardless of my opinions and discussion on the subjects within, it will undoubtedly be an exciting year in politics in the USA!
