Etat : new. This program is read by Audie Award-winning actor Robert Petkoff. "[What stands out is] Petkoff's bravura performance, the fine sound quality, and the exceptional direction and editing. Indeed, this is an impressive audiobook" --Kirkus Reviews on Hitler's Last Days What has to change in America--and why.The new book in the #1 bestselling series. America remains the world's greatest land of opportunity, but too many Americans have lost sight of the values that made it work. Patriotism and civic responsibility have weakened. Families and schools too often fail to teach discipline, character, and personal responsibility. Hard work and self-reliance are losing ground to entitlement and dependency. Drugs, destructive popular culture, and social media are doing real damage. In Confronting America, Bill O'Reilly argues that the answer is not nostalgia or another government program. It is a return to informed citizenship, strong families, honest education, meaningful work, generosity, self-respect, and a willingness to put country and community ahead of self. His central challenge is straightforward: "Americans need to wise up." How do we do that? Education: Our system--once the envy of the world--now ranks below many countries. Restore higher standards of performance so that grade, middle, and high schools prepare our young people for work and life.not unemployment or jail. Family: The collapse of stable family structures is disastrous for young people--especially boys, who need fathers to be present in their lives. Let's honor, rather than denigrate, the values that support two parent households. Drugs: For misguided reasons, we've legalized and enabled drug use through so-called "harm reduction"--with predictable results. The law must help--and require--drug addicts to get clean and be productive members of society. Work: It used to be normal and expected that people would work for a living. Now, not so much. We need to revive the importance of labor, of all kinds, at all levels, and honor the skills of all who show up and do their jobs. Religion: America is becoming increasingly godless, and the decline of spirituality has weakened shared concepts of right and wrong. Americans don't have to join the "God Squad," but religion can reinforce social order--and everyone should respect the law and practice decent behavior. Ultimately, Confronting America is both a warning and a challenge: America will improve when Americans do.
