Beschreibung

An eye-opening and prophetic look at the true state of American politics and culture today. <br><br>Is the U.S. a beacon of progress? That's how the mainstream media want you to see it. But in <i>Myth America</i>, visionary researcher David McGowan presents an index of disturbing facts and ominous trends that illustrate the deep roots of America's systems of oppression. <br><br>From mandatory minimum sentencing laws to more liberal search-and-seizure rules, from Three Strikes You're Out to congressional legislation for a national ID card, McGowan shows how the noose around democracy has been tightening every day for decades--if it ever existed in the U.S. at all. <br><br>David McGowan is the author of the bestselling <i>Weird Scenes Inside the Canyon: Laurel Canyon, Covert Ops</i> &amp; <i>The Dark Heart of the Hippie Dream. </i><br><br><i>Myth America</i> was his first book, originally published in 2000 under the title <i>Derailing Democracy.</i>
