"In the final sense — a theft." — President Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1953. He was a Republican. A warrior. The man who won the last war America actually won. And in 1953, he named the pattern this book maps across thirteen domains: "Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children." We are still ignoring him. ...

The house looked perfect. The couple knew within five minutes. Fresh paint. New appliances. Gleaming hardwood floors. The seller had even baked something that morning. They made a full-price offer the same evening. Six weeks after closing, water began seeping through the basement wall. The HVAC failed the following January. A refinance attempt revealed the finished basement bedroom was legally uninhabitable — the window was too small to meet egress code. Total cost of those three surprises: $47,000. The house hadn't deceived them. They just hadn't known how to read it. THE HOME AUDITOR ...
