This is THE controversial book of the decade (till he writes again). A hard-core, no-holds-barred condemnation of American morals, manners, behavior, ethics, and priorities - including commentary on the political and economic enslavement of Americans - accompanied by goodbyes to self-discipline, self-respect, freedom, responsibility, and patriotism. Engaging, pleasing, and offensive at the same time. ThatOldHippie has struck the nail firmly on the head.
