This book is a very profound recounting and analysis of the subject. From the irrational and abusive nature of arrests and interrogations in the Soviet system to the inhumane and soul-destroying conditions of Soviet labor camps, the author does not hold back in presenting the reader with great detail the horrors of this dark spot on human history. He even goes further as to provide an analysis on what can be learned about human nature and the soul of man from the experiences of those unfortunate enough to find themselves, as the author did, in those gulags. Definitely worth the read!

I love the idea of an anti-communist manifesto, and the main points of the book were good.
I wasn’t a fan of the style of writing, and you’ll have to excuse some sarcastic remarks, but overall worth a listen, and very important to our current situation.

Every man of God should read this book! It is of great importance to our temporal and spiritual salvation, and the dangers it warns about are being carried into effect by many who are acting in ignorance against the laws of the God they attempt to serve. It really opened my eyes as to how I have not been treating the Priesthood with the seriousness it deserves. Read it and share it with others.

An interesting analysis on the excesses of war

The basic idea is that we keep engaging in unnecessary war because the rich and powerful profit from it, while the people foot the bill, monetarily and in loss of life and freedom.

He proposes the following solutions:
1) Enforce fixed wages across the board during war so that nobody earns a higher wage than our soldiers;
2) Place the decision-making power regarding whether or not to enter a war solely in the hands of the military-aged men who would be fighting the war;
3) Limit how far from the US our military could go.

I disagree with the author on a few points, especially regarding his solution. There are much better solutions available to us. The most effective solution would be to end the federal reserve which currently extends the endless line of credit that funds the endless wars and government corruption that benefits only the elites with little support from the people. None of this would have been possible if it actually had to be funded by the people instead of the fed. That would restore sovereignty in the matter to the people.

A clearly articulated explanation of the moral and pragmatic problems with our current economic system, this book is definitely worth a listen! The central bank funds endless wars and overblown government corruption that otherwise would not have been possible, harboring additional consequences of runaway inflation, crime, recession, and loss of individual liberty.

Parts of it smell like propaganda.

Some claims should have been accompanied by greater warrant/evidence for the claim instead of just making claims and moving on.

My knowledge is almost the same after listening to it as it was before.

Also, the person who reads the book didn’t do that great of a job. His voice inflections and emphasis made it seem like he didn’t understand what he was reading.

Overall, not terrible, but kind of meh. I think I wasted a credit.

Extremely well-researched and thorough, yet not complicated. The greatest originalist reading of the US Constitution I’ve ever read. Well worth the listen!

Definitely worth a read, even if you don’t fully agree with the premise. Entertaining enough to keep your interest all the way through. Really makes you think and reconsider how we do things in society. Good book.
