Democrisp started to think to myself how could people be so trusting of a government that constantly has scandals. I would personally recommend this book to anyone who has not read it.
Why do people need the government to tell them to pray? One thing this book does well is show that our government is a total racket, no matter how you look a I definitely enjoyed this book.

The last chapter does hint at some salvation, perhaps in a run from Ventura and Ron Paul in and the hope of enacting real change, not what was promised in Recommended reading for those who enjoy political non-fiction. Apr 23, Leslie D. This is the first book I've read by Jesse Ventura, and I must say, I'm impressed by the depth of his knowledge of the issues he discusses.
With this book, he shows how and why the system is rigged to keep things going the way they do. It's disheartening, in a way, to really see all this corruption in our politics. But the truth is the truth, and "the truth will set you free". By shining a light on this corruption, hopefully it'll dry up in the sunshine and disappear. Anyway, I particularly liked This is the first book I've read by Jesse Ventura, and I must say, I'm impressed by the depth of his knowledge of the issues he discusses.

This is written a bit bombastically, but it's designed to get people fired up and taking action. How would you do that without being a bit over the top?
Unfortunately, I don't think that the system is really changeable, but I do agree that Ventura seems to have focused in on one of the bigger US systemic problems. Aug 03, Rich is currently reading it. I am definitely looking forward to finishing it. Apr 28, Jimmie rated it it was ok Shelves: jesse-ventura , politics. This was not a bad book. I just got tired of the soap-box mentality of Jesse Ventura's writings. At times I felt inspired. Other times I felt Mr.
Ventura had taken too many pile-drives to the head. I came away with a new perspective. I liked the historical connections made in this book and I feel we should at least adopt some new ideas in regards to the two party system. May 09, Ron Larocque rated it it was amazing. I'll agree with most of other reviewers. Jesse and Jim Marrs and Alex Jones are my new heroes. Read everything you can get your hands on.
Jun 20, Peter added it. Easy reading, well researched, not too heavy on the conspiracy stuff, and a great case for third parties, for rejecting the binary system we're accustomed to. That said, the last chapters are a long endorsement of Ron Paul, so there's that tinge of naive libertarianism. There are no discussion topics on this book yet.
