The book has a nice sleuthing pace. I have more success getting people to read it, than most. Factually it is a great explination of how the US stunts democracy, and prosperity everywhere else. The conflicts tend to compound with time. I prefer to read books to the news. The news is too upsetting, and confusing. Books are more rational, and I understand the news better afterwards. If I pay as much attention to the news as I would like, I tend to break.

Yup, but I unschooled her into trying. She told me she didn't really disagree with me, as a kid, just didn't understand. What she was mad about was I treated them like the were stupid. My step dad is kinda slow, and sensitive to that. I was also quite particularly strange.
