I am sorry for the recent inactivity at TheThriftyNation. I have been working on my new book, Freedom Redux: Escape to Freedom, and it is consuming a large portion of my time.
What is Freedom Redux?
Freedom Redux is a fictional novel series of a not to distant future; a future that I pray never comes to be. Book one, Escape to Freedom, takes place in the fall of 2049. The United States has become as much of a Socialist nation as much of Europe is today. The cost of living has skyrocketed, and the poverty rate is higher than any other time in history. Manufacturing is practically non-existent within the United States due to government regulations and high corporate taxation. Most of the businesses who remain are big businesses that can afford the lobbyist who get them tax breaks; small businesses and self-employed individuals are extremely rare. Unions have more power than ever, and have resorted to mafia-style tactics to recruit members.
In the story, a retired Army veteran, with the help of an old friend, save his son from a government re-education program and Escape to Freedom. Check out the FreedomRedux page for updates on the book!
