Contents: Prologue: the noose -- Austerity -- The moral underpinnings of partisan conflict -- The economics of immigration -- Race -- Brutality, coarseness, and the fracture of American politics -- The big one.
Summary: Provides a sobering account of how pitched battles over scarce resources will increasingly define American politics in the coming years--and how citizens might avoid, or at least mitigate, the damage from these ideological and economic battles.
