Government in the Clouds: How to Restore our Democracy and Empower Voters

Government in the Clouds: How to Restore our Democracy and Empower Voters

Dr. Peterson pulls back the curtain on our government and healthcare to reveal some startling facts. Americans should be angry as politicians are handing out hundreds of billions of dollars in subsidizes to rich special interests; government employees are living the American dream while the middle class they serve is being wiped out, and many millions are living on the government dole through a staggering number of entitlement programs. Politicians are taxing, borrowing and spending our country into oblivion; and lobbyists and special interests-the shadow government in Washington-won't rest until "our bones are picked clean". He poignantly illustrates how our founding fathers would not be happy, but most importantly, he offers new options to get ourselves out of this mess and save our Democracy-before it's too late.

"Critical thinking for all" is about the applicability of the phenomenon of this special way of thinking in a real life self help situation. This is a simple, honest definition and analysis of Critical Thinking at the ordinary level for anybody who is interested in the better management of his or her life. Using real life examples as in Mrs. Hilary Clinton's mind burgling lies to expose individual short comings and personal dishonesties, the West African Ebola epidemic, American's righteous racism, Israeli chosen people complex and the Arab Islamic fundamentalism to expose the pervasive lack of critical thinking all around. The book examines the usefulness of Critical Thinking in the management of individual daily life, it explains how it is acquired and how it can be applied to real life situations through a simple learning process. In a simple narrative style it uses current situations, like the Ferguson, Missouri county crisis, the Walmart shop shooting to illustrate the effects of negative direct and indirect nurturing. In the final two chapters the author explains the step by step, processes of acquisition and the application of the skills of Critical Thinking including what he called the divine design. Here he links the two components of Critical Thinking skills, Honest and open mindedness to the theme of the "ten commandments" suggesting that the skill of honesty and open-mindedness are embedded in the commandments and that as difficult as they are to acquire by some, they may be easily achieved through the gift of grace from God, "you only have to ask".

What happens when a loyal henchman, or better yet, hench-laywer rebels against his criminal mastermind? The answer is Hostile Takeover, the sequel to How to Succeed in Evil. Victorious over the forces of good (such as they are) Edwin Windsor is free to do the most evil thing he can imagine: open up an insurance company. Sure, it's a cover for using the Cromoglodon (think, the Hulk) in a protection racket, but when Omdemnity Insurance begins to succeed on it's own merits, it creates a problem for his loyal, violent, debaucherous and very, very short hench-lawyer Topper. When you get into the game for the action, the last thing you want is a real job. After Edwin and his company suck all the fun out of his life, Topper rebels. Staging an unlikely, uphill coup against the smartest, most thorough genius he has ever known. If you've ever had a job you hated. If you've ever secretly rooted for Lex Luthor. If you've ever wondered what it would be like if the henchman was in charge. And, especially if you've read How to Succeed in Evil, you'll love, How to Succeed in Evil: Hostile Takeove
