On the Precipice: Constructing a Strategic Plan to Save the American Empire from Extinction Shawn Ryan Rosa

Publisher Marketing: Since the catastrophic social revolution of the 1960s, the American Empire has witnessed a dramatic decline in prosperity. This decline has been exacerbated by poor executive leadership, intermittent periods of economic turmoil, and involvement in a series of questionable military conflicts. These factors have all combined to diminish American prestige and inhibit the ability of the United States to dictate the direction and pace of global affairs, as it once did with complete authority. Clearly, the American Empire is now in a stage of precipitous decline with extinction lurking just around the corner. Is it possible to reverse fifty years of decay and restore the United States to its former magnificence? How much longer will it be before another force, perhaps China, emerges to unseat America as the world's dominant power? Can anything be learned from the ruin of previous empires, such as the Roman, Mongol, and British, that can guide us in our mission to save the American Empire from within? ON THE PRECIPICE: CONSTRUCTING A STRATEGIC PLAN TO SAVE THE AMERICAN EMPIRE FROM EXTINCTION puts forth the rallying cry that by reestablishing the principles upon which the empire was founded (self-reliance, limited government, minimal taxation and government spending, and the judicious use of the nation's armed forces), the United States of America can indeed rise from the dead and witness a complete renaissance in the new millennium.
