Annotation

A John Birch Society eutopia. Money is tied to gold and silver. It is illegal for the federal government to have a deficit. The minimum wage is abolished; anyone on welfare or being paid in tax dollars is disenfranchised. The sixteenth amendment establishing the income tax is repealed and a new tax system is implemented with no deductions and a maximum tax of ten per cent. The US is no longer in the UN, and the UN is no longer in the US. US citizens tried for treason are "deported to the Communist country of their choice" (46). The change was brought about by those who were "raised in traditional Christian homes and attended private Christian schools" (40).
