For two and a half centuries, America has been held together by the belief that if you work hard and conduct yourself responsibly in this country, you will be able to prosper and leave a better life for your children.

In How Do I Tax Thee?, libertarian commentator and rising media star Kristin Tate takes us on a tour of the ways the government bleeds us dry in innumerable daily transactions and at various stages of life.

Capitalism is under attack by leftists who want to remake the United States into a European-style welfare state. The Obama administration’s corporate bailouts, excessive spending, and sweeping expansion of government interference in the private economy are undermining our economy and the hopes and dreams of future generations. History suggests these policies - if left unchecked - will prove disastrous. The Road to Prosperity is a clarion call for a return to the principles that support economic growth, individual opportunity, and freedom.

America's middle class, the driver of so much of our economic success and political stability, is rapidly disappearing, forcing us to confront the fear that we are slipping as a nation - that our children and grandchildren will enjoy fewer opportunities and face a lower standard of living than we did.

Why did Japanese automakers manage American workers better than the American companies themselves?
