あらすじ・解説
The Beltway Beast: Stealing from Future Generations and Destroying the Middle Class transcends the anger and frustration of American people with their leaders failing to solve the country's problems. It documents our current reality and offer transformational ideas, such as shrinking the presidential primary process by utilizing technology, reducing healthcare cost through smart patient credits, and using a value-based tax system that transfers power from Washington back to the states.
Too often, we accept the status quo instead of questioning why things are the way they are. For example, why is the working income taxed at a higher rate than the nonworking income? Why do the majority of Americans who are independent have to choose only between Democrats and Republicans for the president of the US? Why can't we reduce the cost of medical care so it is affordable instead of relying on health insurance companies as the only solution?
The Beltway consists of Washington, DC, and surrounding counties, and the Beast includes the military-industrial complex, multinational corporations, foreign agents, lobbyists, and Congress. The Beltway Beast is directed toward a system controlled by the Democrats and the Republicans representing the ghosts of the past with the Senate being made up of 80 percent men, 67 percent millionaires, and an average age of 62 years. They govern in unison by piling up debt on our children, taxing the working income more than the nonworking income, violating our privacy, and giving the illusion of security while keeping us on a perpetual war footing.
