More about the book
The book explores the stark contrast between autocracy, characterized by concentrated power and class governance, and the principles of American individualism. It argues that systems where a few individuals control property and resources fundamentally undermine the ideals of freedom and equality that define American society. Through this lens, the author critiques the implications of capitalism when it leads to unrestrained control, highlighting the tension between collective welfare and individual rights.
