Choosing the Good Life: Two Competing Economic Visions shines a bright light on one of the greatest issues of the 21st century. It also tees up one of the most vitally important decisions you will ever make as a citizen. Indeed, this book presents the two distinct and competing economic visions for what constitutes the "Good Life." These economic visions represent two different economic systems, two different ways of looking at life, and two different ways of living life. In fact, they are based on two opposing philosophies of life. Today, at the beginning of the 21st century, each economic vision is competing for your mind and fighting for your support. Your choice of economic visions will help to determine whether America and our civilization will grow or decline; whether we will live in prosperity or struggle with poverty; and whether we will live in peace or at war. You have enormous power as a citizen to influence, shape and decide America's future. Truly, your choice and the choices of millions of other citizens will ultimately impact and help to determine which economic vision will become reality in America and in the world. While this book addresses citizens in America in the early 21st century, its principles and knowledge apply equally well across both time and space. The ideas within Choosing the Good Life are appropriate to citizens in other nations today, and likely will be relevant for generations of citizens to come in the future. In that sense, it is a classic book on economic freedom.

Are you struggling to understand what's really going on in the American Economy today? Do you want to know if our economy will turn-around quickly, or get bogged down in a bad recession, or worse, collapse into a ten-year depression? Do you want to understand why we confront a constant stream of bad economic reports and financial crises? Why we face increasing inflation with mounting food and energy prices? Why our leaders engage in fierce political battles with one another? Do you want to understand why American Culture and morality are in steep decline? Gerard Francis Lameiro, America's Citizen-Philosopher, addresses these questions and more in this clearly written, easy-to-understand, and vitally important book that describes America's Economic War between American Capitalism and socialism. In his engaging style and his uncanny ability to make the complex very simple, Dr. Lameiro describes in riveting detail the serious risks to you and your family's freedom, money and lives.
