The Future Looks Like Baltimore By Craig R. Smith & Lowell Ponte

The Future Looks Like Baltimore

American Dream vs. Progressive Dream

 

New book reveals keys to winning the battle for the future of the U.S.
 

As Baltimore braces for the first of the six trials sparked by allegations that six Baltimore police officers caused fatal injuries to Freddie Gray, a small-time drug dealer in this city where nearly one resident in ten uses heroin, we are reminded of the riots, looting and arson of last April, which injured 200 police, damaged 350 businesses, and set fire to 150 vehicles and 60 structures.  Is this what the future of America looks like?

According to monetary expert Craig R. Smith and futurist Lowell Ponte, it's a very real possibility if Progressives have their way.  In their new, THE FUTURE LOOKS LIKE BALTIMORE, Smith and Ponte explore the sinister origins and roots of Progressivism - an un-American, anti-individualism and pro-collectivism, anti-free market and pro-socialist ideology - that shares common ideological ancestry with both Nazism and Communism.

 

In The Future Looks Like Baltimore, you will learn: 

• The history of Baltimore and how it started out as a key destination for immigrants seeking the American Dream;
• How Progressive politics took over cities like Baltimore replacing the traditional American Dream of equality under law, life, liberty, property rights, prosperity, and personal responsibility into government-run welfare dependents;
• How Progressives have an elitist tendency to want the state to impose their values onto everybody else;
• How Progressives believe that if science and state are given limitless power, they can create a new Eden and a perfect human species free from greed, want and war; and
• About the leading Democrats in the 2016 Presidential campaign - Hillary Clinton, who advocates "toppling" the top one percent of income earners in America, and Bernie Sanders, a self-described Socialist who favors imposing an annual 90 percent income tax rate on the rich and up to a 65 percent tax on their estates.

According to a September 2015 Gallup poll, 49% of Americans say the federal government now poses "an immediate threat to the rights and freedoms of ordinary citizens." Why do so many Americans feel threatened by a Progressive-led government? Smith and Ponte detail how Progressivism is systematically killing the American Dream by undermining four of its cornerstones: 1) honoring property rights, 2) doing better than our parents via education, 3) working to earn our own way, and 4) achieving an independent, earned and secure retirement.
 

They also reveal how and why Progressives like President Obama are rushing America into a cashless, un-capitalist new economic system. Craig and Lowell show how Progressives hijacked the Democratic Party and, through anti-business taxes and regulations, are ruining the American economy through the fear of expropriation that businesses now feel about investing and hiring more workers as the Democrats stifle growth of the economy with endless regulations and new policies.
 

The mere existence of a major Progressive Party threatens, damages and weakens America's free market economy and future. The more it wins, the more our nation will resemble the bad aspects of Baltimore. Progressives are busy destroying the old American Dream and the Constitution that had kept government size and power in check.
 

In this, their sixth book, the authors show how readers can help protect themselves and their savings; and they suggest some things we can do to help reignite the American Dream and win this battle.  Craig and Lowell also reveal Baltimore's little-noticed seeds of greatness that could restore the American Dream.
