Did not finish book. Stopped at 17%.
A HUGE red flag for me is when the author referred to social security and Medicare as “entitlement programs” and not government benefits.  Also, stupid me didn’t see the written endorsement of the completely racist and stupid person known as “Tucker Carlson.” I already know a lot of the arguments that were made in this book, so I, not really interested in continuing.

Got a couple chapters in and I have thoroughly lost interest in reading this one right now. I do want to continue, but I think I’ll finish it in physical format.
