The Slow Death of American Democracy

Our democracy is under threat: Voter suppression, legalized bribery, the destruction of unions, poverty, racism, a partisan Supreme Court and much, much more - we are witnessing the deterioration of American democracy right before our eyes. It's time to fight back. In this book you'll find fifty problems with American democracy laid bare, encompassing everything from the Electoral College to the disproportionate make up of the Senate to our extremely skewed tax code to shadow organizations with enormous influence over our government. If you're a liberal, if you're a progressive, if you're part of the Resistance, this book will give you the intellectual ammunition you need to combat the extremist Republican Party and the injustices we're seeing all around us. We can no longer sit back while conservatives take names off of voting lists and add names to prison rosters. Bernie Sanders once said that we have to decide whether we want to be a democracy or an oligarchy. Right now we have an oligarch president in Donald Trump, the poster-child for greed and privilege. We have corporations not only influencing our politicians, but often writing the laws themselves. And we have a growing wealth gap between the richest 1% and the rest of us. Some of the information you'll find this book will truly shock you. But we can change things. It begins by defeating the lies from the other side. Let's get started.
