Uncle Sam's Plantation: How Big Government Enslaves America's Poor and What We
Can Do About It by
Star Parker (Author) (Hardcover )
America has two economic systems: capitalism for the rich and socialism for
the poor. This double-minded approach seems to keep the poor enslaved to poverty
while the rich get richer. Let’s face it, despite its $400 billion price tag,
welfare isn’t working. The solution, asserts
Star Parker, is a faith-based, not
state-sponsored, plan. In
Uncle Sam's Plantation, she offers five simple
yet profound steps that will allow the nation’s poor to go from entitlement and
slavery to empowerment and freedom. Parker shares her own amazing journey up
from the lower rungs of the economic system and addresses the importance of
extending the free market system to this neglected group of people. Emphasizing
personal initiative, faith, and responsibility, she walks readers toward
releasing the hold poverty has over their lives. |
