I find it interesting that the author found the origin, cause and possible solutions to the deliberate exploitation of the disability funds set in place to help people in need. I think it's worth a read. Thank you for the review!

I like that this book exposes dubious people who loot from the government through disability claims and other schemes such as Electronic Benefits System. I also like that the book offers solutions on how to avoid these vices. Great review.

It’s great that the author helps expose the policies and programs that he believes hinder the United States. Sounds like he makes some convincing arguments!

This book is definitely relatable to all countries and not just the US. The book is written in a very easy and straightforward manner to follow. I enjoy the research and facts that went into this book! Well done on #BOTD and an amazing review.

Unfortunately, the level of corporate obsequiousness practiced by many US politicians, especially since the Supreme Court's ruling on Citizens United, is sadly depressing. I'm impressed that the author has recognized the practices for what they are: the looting of citizens. Congrats to him on his accomplishment.

I think analysis on this sort of level is important to spread awareness of issues that many Americans may not be conscious of. Would definitely like to read this one for another perspective on the economy and its current issues.

I am not American nor do I live anywhere near America. However, this book sounds like it may be an interesting point of view to read. I fully believe in the criticism of the government in order to help the citizens. Great review!

This well-researched book highlights the corruption that is found within government agencies especially through EBT and SNAP programs. It's unfortunate that people seek to benefit from this very helpful programs in a negative way. Many can learn from this book. Congrats on the BOTD!

Politics doesn’t interest me but this looks like a book the author had put time and thought into.

I read the sample chapters and agree with your review. The book is brutally honest and calls for everyone to take action. The problems are not insurmountable but they need a concerted effort from everyone. The concern that general apathy will allow the situation to deteriorate to a point of no return.

I am not an American, and since I don't live in the United States it is not surprising that I have little to zero interest in their numerous local problems when each country has their own issues and mine isn't an exception. Therefore, I prefer to pass this book, but still would like to congratulate the author on BOTD!

Looting among people is so common, but people looting from the government sounds weird and awful. I can not wait to read License To Loot! by Pascale Batieufaye and be aware of how it all happens. Congratulations on the BOTD.
