Do we continue to follow the road of decay and decline, or do we choose to revitalize our country and return to the feelings of patriotism that helped America become a shining light to those around the world?

Author Newt Gingrich has his goals aligned with the latter and seeks to educate and energize others to follow this new path。The book addresses the dangers of Big Government Socialism and what could happen if we sit back and allow it to continue its march。 While much of it seems to have occurred in the last decade, the origins can be found over a century ago。 Mr。 Gingrich outlines the history, detailing the main events and explaining what has brought us to the precipice we are standing on today。 While it would be impossible to address all the issues without naming those who championed socialism’s “achievements,” the author has chosen not to focus on those people。 Rather, he attacks the institution of socialism and the tools that have been used to increase its power。There are plenty of footnotes to support the writing, and I found myself investigating various facets of the history as well as what led up to some of the most recent issues。 The book is anything but dry, and I quickly read it over the course of a few days。Mr。 Gingrich sums up with a call to action。 Big Government Socialism will not go away simply because we wish it to, and if America is to survive with all its freedoms intact, it will need our help。 It was encouraging the author explained that Republicans should not believe a “red wave” in 2022 and 2024 is the sole answer。 Those who choose to represent the people must not turn their backs on the Democrats across the aisle, and only through civility and hard work will non-partisan legislation be once again the norm rather than an occasional surprise。 This is a great guidebook for those who wish to be more involved in the solution。 At the very least, it should give you perspective on why we should treat family relatives with respect。 We may not agree with what they believe, but we will never achieve compromise without understanding what they think。 Five stars。My thanks to NetGalley and Hatchette Book Group/Center Street for a complimentary electronic copy of this book。 。。。more
Jennifer Gore,
Want to learn about who created the appalling lack of bipartisanship in America? Look no further than Newt。
Dave,
Newt Gingrich is best known for his years in politics, particularly as Speaker of the House。 He is also a scholar of history, well-studied, and well-spoken。 He has that innate ability to see not only the details of policies, but the big picture as well。 Defeating Big Government Socialism is Gingrich’s latest volume of policy explanations and prescriptions。 Big Government Socialism here is defined in the widest way, but at its root is a description of bureaucracy gone mad。 Gingrich cogently argue Newt Gingrich is best known for his years in politics, particularly as Speaker of the House。 He is also a scholar of history, well-studied, and well-spoken。 He has that innate ability to see not only the details of policies, but the big picture as well。 Defeating Big Government Socialism is Gingrich’s latest volume of policy explanations and prescriptions。 Big Government Socialism here is defined in the widest way, but at its root is a description of bureaucracy gone mad。 Gingrich cogently argues, with quotations from Locke, Tocqueville, Hamilton, Adams, and Krauthhammer, that our system of government was designed to be small, limited, and divided。 Read the Federalist Papers, he argues, with its emphasis on separation of powers。 What’s emerged, starting with FDR, but exploding more recently is a overarching bureaucracy of elitists who think that they, rather than the free market, have all the answers。 Absolute power corrupts and giving government agencies all power corrupts the process and the outcomes。 With these themes in mind, Gingrich tackles a number of issues relevant to modern-day America。 Agree with him or disagree, but read his arguments with a serious mind, not just a dismissive wave。 。。。more

The man is as morally bankrupt as they come, and he hasn't met a value he wouldn't sell out for a younger, pretter one。 Yet he wants us to pay him to preach to us about the values America should hold? No thanks, hard pass。 。。。more
