Book: America the Prisoner
By local author Lewis Reynolds
Overview: How to Achieve Energy Independence and renew America's economic power
An America Finally Free of Foreign Oil. Imagine . Happen. Can. It. Millions of New Jobs, Economic Growth, a Healthier Planet, and True Economic Self...
Dependence on foreign oil is one of the great challenges for modern America. America the Prisoner is a deeply researched study of how we got to where we are today and the consequences Americans suffer because of it. A century of political events and economic developments have brought America to this point where more than two-thirds of petroleum consumed in the US is imported from overseas. Yet, most Americans do not realize that the long standing dependence on foreign oil has far reaching implications for their daily lives.
Energy independence is not only important to American consumers and taxpayers, it is also a key issue for business leaders.
As a reminder, you don’t have to read the book! The facilitator will share the main principles from the book with the group.
