A sci-fi book from a right-wing politician that really, truly understands his political opponents, sounds interesting:
> The Powers of the Earth is set forty years from now, when the Global Fair Deal’s command economy has mired Earth in a long-term depression, profitable businesses have been shut down and their CEOs put on trial, military fitness standards have been relaxed to accommodate “alternatively abled soldiers,” the Bureau of Sustainable Research bans technological innovation because it destroys jobs, and on and on.
