The book highlights why America is at a critical inflection point in its history and faces a serious threat to its fragile democracy from the politically correct one view big state government that according to Lim is led by the tech giant monopoly dominance over the internet, social media and aided by the mainstream media.
The book attempts a fact-based approach, leveraging business management methodologies and discipline to analyze issues and their causations. All derived conclusions are also supported by historical equivalents, fundamental concepts per relevant disciplines, related organizational cultures and the motivations and personal agendas of the participants. This approach is most interesting as it is aligned neither with the left nor to the right, an independent, unbiased approach to problem solving.
“The current American Civil War is really about the struggle between the culture of competition and growth against the culture of monopoly and decadence. The struggle of following one’s reason and doing what's right against trying to be politically correct,” Lim says. “For all Americans, let us explore how to bring the country together, whom to reach out to help the country succeed, what we can do to volunteer and help make this country great again.”
