Dangerous Subversive Heresies: Examinations of Politics, Religion and Sex Guaranteed to Irritate and Aggravate Both the Right and the Left (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781530247325)

Think of all the hundreds of people from whom you learned about the world, and the hundreds of people from whom they learned about the world. Then throw in all the people who want to sell you something, and all the people who think it's perfectly okay to lie to you as long as they're "doing it for your own good." Pretty soon, you can start to see that your view of the world may very well be a copy, of a copy, of a copy, each one a little fuzzier than the one before. When you go looking for the original, you can find some pretty surprising things. Things like: -The police have no legal duty to protect you, from anything...ever. -The Establishment Clause (Freedom of Religion) clause of the First Amendment has never been violated a single time in the history of the United States. -People may be completely responsible for getting themselves into poverty, but cannot always be held responsible for getting themselves out. -When it comes to the problem of health care, health insurance is not the answer, it's the problem. You're invited to come along on one regular Joe's personal journey to the farthest reaches of the realm, mixing conversation, story telling, history and humor in a search for that most elusive of quarries, the truth.
