Customer Reviews: Avg. Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 GOOD READING FOR AN AMERICAN:
Short on Suggested Resolution.: Glenn is 'Right-On' when it comes to our federally elected lawmakers and many of their appointed cronies. He falls a little short organizing or suggesting appropriate action(s) voters might rally around to clean up, or clean out, everything he finds destructive within our political process. Surely this creative and popular American could do more to suggest equal amounts of solution to each of his criticisms. Not really a fan, nor a hater.. but the book makes common sense: I like to think of myself as an independent thinker. This book does a great job of breaking down some pretty big problems with government and society. If you are a parent or younger than 40, I finished the book with a bit of different perspective. I actually am not a fan of Mr. Beck, never seen his show. However he does seem to make some very valid points, especially about the economic troubles facing our nation. So, it's a fast read and if you are open minded, it's interesting and does make common sense. Uncommon Sense: The title says it all. The first half is written by the author with the second half written by Thomas Payne. We have heard that common sense isn't so common and this book outlines why. Straight and to the point Glenn points to all the ways we went wrong and what we need to do to fix it.
