The United States - the world's great bastion of freedom - is sliding toward
socialism. Recent high-profile bailouts and controversial stimulus bills show
the walls between government and private sectors getting thinner each day.
Federal control now extends in various ways to education, health care,
financial markets, real estate, businesses, and religion. And as out-of-control
government spending and debt increase accordingly, America is drained of
the economic and political strength its people fought and worked so hard to
achieve. But it isn't too late to save the land of the free.
Saving Freedom is Senator Jim DeMint's firsthand account of the unsettling
socialist shift behind-the-scenes actions in Congress that are changing the
character of our nation. He illuminates key principles of freedom and how
they are being compromised by big government. More important, DeMint
lays out a complete action plan to reclaim America's freedom based on legislation
that would reduce debt, fix Social Security, and provide a tax credit
for every family to buy health insurance. The plan also emphasizes reversing
America's cultural decline by restoring a strong spirit of God and country.
