About this audiobook

#1 New York Times bestselling author and radio host Mark R. Levin delivers a "bracing meditation” (National Review) on the ways our government has failed the next generation.

In modern America, the civil society is being steadily devoured by a ubiquitous federal government. But as the government grows into an increasingly authoritarian and centralized federal Leviathan, many parents continue to tolerate, if not enthusiastically champion, grievous public policies that threaten their children and successive generations with a grim future at the hands of a brazenly expanding and imploding entitlement state poised to burden them with massive debt, mediocre education, waves of immigration, and a deteriorating national defense.

Yet tyranny is not inevitable. In Federalist 51, James Madison explained with cautionary insight the essential balance between the civil society and governmental restraint: “In framing a government which is to be administered by men over men, the great difficulty lies in this: you must first enable the government to control the governed; and in the next place oblige it to control itself.”

This essential new book is, against all odds, a likeminded appeal to reason and audacity—one intended for all Americans but particularly the rising generation. Younger people must find the personal strength and will to break through the cycle of statist manipulation, unrelenting emotional overtures, and the pressure of groupthink, which are humbling, dispiriting, and absorbing them; to stand up against the heavy hand of centralized government, which if left unabated will assuredly condemn them to economic and societal calamity.

Levin calls for a new civil rights movement, one that will foster liberty and prosperity and cease the exploitation of young people by statist masterminds. He challenges the rising generation of younger Americans to awaken to the cause of their own salvation, asking: will you acquiesce to a government that overwhelmingly acts without constitutional foundation—or will you stand in your own defense so that yours and future generations can live in freedom?

    Where I cannot say anything positive about Levin's writing -- it being derivative and inane at best -- I will speak to the man in suggesting that he is slightly smarter than Rudy Guilliani, but only just. It's a sad testament that Mark has struggled with undiagnosed senility since the Reagan administration and longer still since he had a NYC hooker milk his prostate while plotting the fascist demise of American democracy. The 60s were a good decade amiright Mark?

    Scathing and direct, this book makes a strong and factual case for how this generation's Washington and their uncontrolled spending are putting the next 2 or 3 generations in this nation at great financial peril. Not for the weak hearted, Levin almost pleads to current Americans to read, understand, and follow this book to change the way we are literally spending ourselves to death. The most disturbing aspect of this book is the case he makes for how this country will be spending more on social programs ALONE than the GDP of America within 20 years. Think Black Friday hysteria is bad? Wait until food, shelter, and clothing are in short supply someday unless deemed worthy by the almighty Federals. This one really makes you think.

    Another thoughtful book from the modern-day Paul Revere imploring the younger generation to awaken to the federal plunder and deceit that is stealing their liberty and their future. The book presents well researched and clearly articulated positions on several key categories of federal over-reach, power grabs, and plunder of the nations riches. In addition to this book, The Liberty Amendments and Ameritopia are MUST reads for any liberty and freedom minded American.

    The next generation will be worse off than the previous generation due to central government policies. That fact alone should cause Plunder & Deceit to be a required reading for all Americans. A deep thinking, hard hitting book, this is another brilliant read from the genius mind of "The Great One", Mark Levin. He not only names who, but what is causing America to not make the steps forward to continue the advancement of liberty. In this 194 page book with over 60 pages of footnotes, Levin informs the future generations on how to inform themselves on keys issues, such as the massive 18 trillion dollar debt, no lock on the social security lockbox, Medicare and Obamacare (on average premiums going up 40% annually), the expensive education and the social leftist experiment on universities, unlimited immigration, the phony EPA movement, the minimum wage attack on youth employment, lack of national security with the grow of nuclear arms, and the importance of our Constitution. Levin ends the book with a call for a new civil rights movement, for next the generations to rise up and become the Paulette and Paul Revere’s because in the words of Ronald Reagan, “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.”
