Book Description
Awaken America depicts a new visualization of what America accomplished during the past 225-years of its childhood and what the young-adult phase of the American dream could be in the 3rd Millennium. Starting with an Allegory about a fictitious Tribe called The-People-Of-The-Eagle, who together team-up to regain both lost values and prosperity, Awaken America continues with high hopes for America’s future. That bright future can surely light up the way for a world of freedom, democracy, prosperity, intense competition without strife or war, personal creativity, innovation, political stability and environmental stability. These “New Ideas and New Ideals” are best summarized as follows: NEW IDEALS WEAKNESSES vs. STRENGTHS Buyer Loyalty: Overseas Products vs. American Products Buyer Demand: Complacent Consumers vs. Demanding Buyers Competition: Existing Wealth vs. New Wealth R&D: Exporting Technology vs. Developed At Home Trade: Weak and Dependent vs. Strong Negotiating Leverage Capital: Indebtedness vs. Solvency Rewards & Acclaim: Entertainers vs. Innovators Planning: Quick Profits vs. Long-Range Plans Litigation: Greedy Adversaries vs. Trust Between People Peer Pressure: Government Action vs. People Action Democracy: Corruption vs. Freedom Voting: Apathy vs. Enhancing Democracy Political Action: Tilted Playing Field vs. Fair Competition People Values: Material Things vs. People Income Taxes: Inequality vs. Equality Inheritance: Values vs. Wealth Terrorism: Passive Acceptance vs. Active Deterrent
