  The experiments of both Capitalism and Communism are almost complete, and they both lead to one big organization controlling everything you do. In 1925, when this book was first published, it was true, and it is even truer today.If you desire an alternative, consider this book, which considers Distributism, a philosophy whereby the actual people own the actual means of production, and produce and sustain themselves with it. A philosophy summed up in Chesterton's famous proposal of "Three acres and a cow" as being catalyst to an ideal peasant state.For such a simple idea, it has proven very contrary to the ideas of those in power, which is to say, to those who want power.  But for the rest of us, for the sane humans who desire peace and liberty, this book is a call to action against monopoly and the inevitability of global standardization, which the magazines call the Supply Chain and the Bible might call Babel and Babylon. Narrated in an accent based upon Chesterton's own, this performance expresses Chesterton's words as he himself might have, delivering them to an audience of his time.

  In the early 70s a drugged-out seventeen-year-old named Doug, along with his secretly gay, openly black, best friend, decides to hitchhike across the country in search of a mythical Utopia. They meet Bologna Jane & Tina the Monkey Girl, Big Arm and Nigga Dog. They almost die along the way. Doug hooks up with his brother and friends on converted school bus. They harvest huge bags of really weak marijuana, thanks to a couple of Redneck Hippies, and try to sell it. Along the way, Doug winds up getting his ribs and heart broken.  
  Sick of hitchhiking and hunger, Doug decides it is time to get rich. He gets sucked into the inside world of the famous Glenn W. Turner and his get-rich-quick scheme: Koscot Interplanetary, Incorporated. Doug cuts his hair, buys a suite and tie, and along with a bunch of Disney World rejects, spends his days trying to convince strangers to give him a $5000 so he can make them rich. Then he changes into his real clothes and spends his nights begging strangers to give him a buck so he can eat.  
  His failure to become a good salesman or panhandler leads him to a group of friendly Satan-worshiping heroin addicts who believe that in the end of time, Jesus will forgive Satan, who will then resume his place as the greatest Angel in all of Heaven.  
  This is a completely true story. Proof exists in the form of letters, interviews, memorabilia and historical evidence. Besides, nobody could make this up.

  Egypt's geographical isolation and the unique geography of the Nile Valley are thought to have been responsible for its long existence. Because of this military control, astronomical concepts in Egypt became so ingrained and inseparable from everyday concerns that they became an integral part of Egyptian life. As your gaze rises to the horizons of Egypt, you can see the movement of the stars and planets: the climatic conditions never change, ensuring a similar seasonal cycle each year. Besides this, Egypt also enjoys a cloudless sky almost all the time and a location in latitude that allows even the most densely populated regions of the starry heavens to be viewed.
