This is an interesting review. I feel like it may also be applicable in countries that have a developed economy.

For a long time, I've always thought that the downfall of an economy has a lot to do with government. But after reading the review of License To Loot, I'm able to see things from a different perspective when it comes to politics. This is an insightful book which I'm looking forward to reading. Congratulations on BOTD.

Thanks for the informative review. The lengths people will go to make it in life are astounding! And that's happening in the U.S, the land of the free and of opportunities (or is looting the opportunities available to the free?)! It's quite disconcerting to think what will happen in developing nations. Not my my genre though, so I'll pass. Congrats on the BOTD.

Politics are a part of our every day lives and affect us whether we actively participate or not. This isn't my kind of book, but I commend the author for writing it. I'm sure others will find it useful. Thanks for your review.

The events depicted in the novel are not merely limited to American culture. People in positions of power have assumed leadership responsibilities all over the world as a part of some game to gain irrational power, whether it be in the form of money or other power. When morally upright people pay attention to these vices, it kind of provides us a decent negotiating position with heartless autocrats.
I find it fascinating to learn how its inhabitants deliberately scam the government by filing for disability benefits and relying on EBT. To be able to figure out these tricks, the author must have conducted a significant amount of research.

Today's book of the day is written by a concerned American citizen to expose the way some citizens defraud the government through disability claims and some other fraudulent claims. I wish to congratulate the author on being the #BOTD!

This seems like a well-researched book, but it doesn't sound like my kind of book. Thanks for the insight!

I'm not an American, nor am I interested in political reads. While the topics discussed are important and applicable to other countries than just USA I'm not curious to read them. Good to know that author used easy-to-understand language. Great review.

Most citizens will seize opportunities to loot the State. This book presents some of these opportunities and how to minimise them. It is a must-read for everyone seeking public office. Thanks for the review.

I think it is nice to see a book that addresses the United States in the realm of social issues. The only issue I might address is that EBT and SNAP are regulated on the state level, not federally. Nice review.

From a sampling, this seems like an interesting book focusing on the concept that there is "looting" of government and political organizations through numerous means. While it might not be for everyone, some people might want to give it another look. Well done.

I do not live in the U.S but that doesn’t mean I cannot read about their politics and lifestyle. This seems interesting enough.
