Paperback. Zustand: Good. UNSUSTAINABLE is packed with information that is vital to every taxpaying American. It reveals shocking information that has long been hidden from the public. It exposes how governments at every level hide the pay and exorbitant pensions they provide to themselves and use accounting trickery to keep taxpayers from knowing of the enormous costs and long-term liabilities. MacDougald shows how the federal government keeps $106 trillion of debt hidden from taxpayers, and how state and local governments hide another $3 trillion. He exposes exactly how governments often trick taxpayers into agreeing to pay more and more taxes to save schools or provide police protection when the money really goes to more pay and bigger pensions. UNSUSTAINABLE details how public sector unions have become a money pump, taking taxpayer dollars paid to public sector workers, then given as union dues, and then used for political contributions to politicians who will support the extraction of even more taxpayer dollars. The provocative and controversial book also documents and exposes the huge financial catastrophe that is about to befall Social Security, baby boomers and our younger workers and how it will threaten our economy for decades. UNSUSTAINABLE addresses the jobs squeeze, detailing how the private sector lost 1.5 million jobs in the last decade even as government grew by 2 million. And it reveals how Congress passes laws that they know violate our Constitutional rights and gets away with it. It is a book that all Americans, no matter what their politics, must read.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. The First European Colony in the United StatesJuan Ponce de Le n, the discoverer and first governor of La Florida, established the first European colony in the United States on the west coast of Florida in 1521. Although its location has never been determined, historians have theorized that it likely occurred somewhere in the Charlotte Harbor area. The settlement is believed to have lasted only three to four months. It was abandoned when conflict with the local Indians resulted in Juan Ponce being mortally wounded. The survivors took him to Cuba where he died of his wounds.In 1528, seven years after the Ponce de Le n settlement had been abandoned, P nfilo de Narv ez landed just north of the entrance to Tampa Bay with an expedition of 400 men and 10 women. On one of their first inland expeditions they encountered the Tocobaga Indians at their main village in today's Safety Harbor, where they found many cargo boxes and European artifacts that may have been remnants of the Ponce de Le n settlement. The inland exploration by Narv ez and three hundred of his men, seeking a non-existent large bay to theirnorth, resulted in the deaths of all but four, who became the first to explore inland North America, finally reaching the Pacific eight years later.Rare and seldom-seen Spanish maps produced by the royal mapmakers in Seville in 1527 show the location and latitude for the Bay of Juan Ponce. MacDougald produces compellingevidence that Narv ez was seeking the Bay of Juan Ponce, and that the first European colony established in the United States occurred in Tampa Bay, likely in the area known today as SafetyHarbor in Old Tampa Bay, the site of the Tocobaga village visited by Narv ez. …
