  <description>&lt;p&gt; In no-nonsense prose, the authors confront critical concerns about the position of the United States as the world's leading economy and its great military might.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;From the Publisher:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt; In "Empire of Debt, " maverick financial writers Bill Bonner and Addison Wiggin provide you with the first in-depth look at how the American character has shifted to accommodate its new imperial role; how we have abandoned the private virtues of personal liberty, economic freedom, and fiscal restraint; and how the government has gained control of public life and the economy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description>
