An Eye-Opener!
Excellent book! This British MP says why the US shouldn't be moving towards socialism, as Obama and friends seem to want. He explains what life under European socialism is like, when government is basically run by bureaucracies headed by appointees--it means that elected officials can't have much effect on what the bureaucracies are doing. He also gives info about the European Union that I wasn't aware of: that the people of the countries that joined weren't allowed to vote on whether or not they wanted to join and that the 27 people that run it weren't elected--apparently they appointed themselves.
