This book focuses on some of the endemic fault lines upon which the modern American culture could fracture and to start to fragment. The dynamic of the American culture coming out of the civil war is freedom and equality before the law. It is the glue which unites the varied people of the United States into one political culture.The corporation is antithetical to the dynamic of freedom and equality before the law; because for every legal right of freedom there is a co-legal duty (civil liability). However in a corporation every corporate employee is immune from civil liability, while acting within the scope of the corporate charter (the corporate business).This was the primary cause of economic debacle of 2008 in the United States. The explosion of crime, especially violent crime emanating from perceptually appearing black Americans causes a dilemma in the American culture. The epidemic of violent crime has lead to:* Numerous restrictive and harsh penal laws. Those laws restrict the rights of freedom* Incarceration of millions of Americans is antithetical to a nation which is based on freedom.As president Abraham Lincoln said in the Gettysburg address (the spiritual constitution of the United States of America) - "we are now engaged in a great civil war, testing whether this nation or any nation so conceived and dedicated (to freedom and equality before the law) can long endure.
