3. I have read Zinn's Peoples History . Excellent book . I also read Peoples History of the Civil War

by David Williams . Extremely eye opening . Will read how America was lost . After reading these books
you come to a stark realization just who owns and rules America and really has since the Civil War .
It will take millions out on the streets to make any change to this Plutocratic Corporate State .
