Summary
America the Prisoner is a deeply researched yet simply written study of the political and economic events that have led to the seemingly inextricable US dependence on foreign oil, the consequences of that dependence, and a specific plan to end it. Where politicians fear to tread, the author takes you deep into the sordid political history of the pursuit of “black gold,” detailing the dirty deals and questionable political decisions that have been made in the name of access to the world’s most important natural resource. In these perilous times, the US economy faces great challenges. Every year, the US exports hundreds of billions of national wealth, one gallon at a time. As America’s wealth streams out across its borders, the innumerable and far-reaching consequences should come as no surprise. Bubbles, recessions, and a century of conflict can all trace their roots to foreign oil dependence. The shaky ground on which the US economy now stands owes much of its instability to the same culprit that has distorted American foreign policy for decades. To meet America’s foreign policy challenges and end an unprecedented economic crisis, it is time to break the chains of energy dependence. The American consumer can have stable, affordable fuel, and the US can sever its connection to the world of radical Islam once and for all. America the Prisoner shows how cutting-edge technology can profitably replace oil with domestically-produced renewable energy. The US can end the scourge of foreign oil and renew America while bringing back jobs, increasing wealth, and promoting economic growth.
