The Case Against an Ouf-Of-Control Government, Inspired by Thomas Paine

#1 New York Times bestselling author and popular radio and television host Glenn Beck revisits Thomas Paine's Common Sense. In any era, great Americans inspire us to reach our full potential. They know with conviction what they believe within themselves. They understand that all actions have consequences. And they find commonsense solutions to the nation’s problems. One such American, Thomas Paine, was an ordinary man who changed the course of history by penning Common Sense, the concise 1776 masterpiece in which, through extraordinarily straightforward and indisputable arguments, he encouraged his fellow citizens to take control of America’s future—and, ultimately, her freedom. Nearly two and a half centuries later, those very freedoms once again hang in the balance. And now, Glenn Beck revisits Paine’s powerful treatise with one purpose: to galvanize Americans to see past government’s easy solutions, two-party monopoly, and illogical methods and take back our great country.

The Case for a Commonsense Universal Health System

n this book John Marty makes the case for a universal health care system that is medically beneficial, fiscally responsible, andmorally necessary.Senator Marty starts by spelling out principles we should expect our health care system to follow, then lays out a commonsense plan to meet those principles. The result is a proposal to cover all people for all of their medical needs, in an accountable, comprehensible, fair, and affordable manner.Marty cuts through and critiques layers of "reforms" - from the Nixon era to the Obama administration - that led to the current bureaucratic nightmare that causes Americans to pay almost twice as much as other advanced nations, with worse coverage and poor health outcomes. Our health care system is so dysfunctional, one business executive quipped, "If you tried to design a health care system that doesn't work, you couldn't have done a better job."Senator Marty's well-researched, thoroughly-documented proposal is a blueprint not only for Minnesota but for people across the country who are eager to create a health care system that works.

#logic #commonsense #howtothinkforyourself

Uncover the truth under all the BS

In the daily battle for our hearts and minds--not to mention our hard-earned cash--the truth is usually the first casualty. It's time we learned how to see through the rhetoric, faulty reasoning, and misinformation that we're subjected to from morning to night by talk-radio hosts, op-ed columnists, advertisers, self-help gurus, business "thinkers," and, of course, politicians. And no one is better equipped to show us how than award-winning philosopher Jamie Whyte.

In Crimes Against Logic Whyte take us on a fast-paced, ruthlessly funny romp through the mulligan stew of can, folderol, and bogus logic served up in the media, at the office, and even in your own home. Applying his laserlike wit to dozens of timely examples, Whyte cuts through the haze of facts, figures, and double-talk and gets at the real truth behind what they're telling us.

"An incisive philosopher."

A volume of Thomas Paine's most essential works, showcasing one of American history's most eloquent proponents of democracy.

Upon publication, Thomas Paine's modest pamphletCommon Sense shocked and spurred the foundling American colonies of 1776 to action. It demanded freedom from Britain-when even the most fervent patriots were only advocating tax reform. Paine's daring prose paved the way for the Declaration of Independence and, consequently, the Revolutionary War. For "without the pen of Paine," as John Adams said, "the sword of Washington would have been wielded in vain."

Later, his impassioned defense of the French Revolution, Rights of Man, caused a worldwide sensation. Napoleon, for one, claimed to have slept with a copy under his pillow, recommending that "a statue of gold should be erected to Paine in every city in the universe."

Here in one volume, these two complete works are joined with selections from Pain's other major essays,"The Crisis," "The Age of Reason," and "Agrarian Justice."

Includes a Foreword by Jack Fruchtman Jr.
and an Introduction by Sidney Hook
