Description


In the life cycle of a company an entrepreneur creates a business and workers make it strong - as the Founding Fathers and generations of Americans to follow did in our nations history. But often, future managers lose sight of what made the business strong in the first place, instead relying on past glory for continued success. This life cycle also applies in politics. In America, our political management has failed us. Its time to clean house.

In Hostile Takeover, best-selling author and Tea Party organizer Matt Kibbe lays out a plan for breaking down the centralized bureaucracy that is hamstringing the American economy and eroding Americans freedom. Hostile Takeover maps out how citizen activists can and will check the federal behemoth and restore the decentralized system of government the Founders intended. While the trend for generations is for the government to grow, this decentralized political movement will add the political pressure to actually begin to roll the size and scope for government back to its constitutional limits.

Reviews

"Hostile Takeover is essential reading for anyone looking to understand how individual freedom can prevail in a world of decentralized information. Matt Kibbe and this book provide us all with a roadmap on how to take back our lives, liberties, and responsibilities. " -- GLENN BECK

"Matt Kibbe is a warrior for the cause of limited government. He is a citizen activist who makes sense, and his well-researched and passionately argued book is a strong addition to the discussion that will eventually define the constitutional balance between government and people- power." -- GERALDO RIVERA

"Matt Kibbe brings an intellectual foundation to the national outcry for limited government. Hostile Takeover proves we come armed and prepared for battle, and that we are prepared to fight in the arena of ideas." -- SENATOR RAND PAUL (R-Kentucky)
