Summary

Uncle Sams's Plantation is an incisive look at how government manipulates, controls, and ultimately devastates the lives of the poor-and what Americans must do to stop it. Once a hustler and welfare addict who was chewed up and spit out by the ruthless welfare system, Star Parker sheds much-needed light on the bungled bureaucratic attempts to end poverty and reveals the insidious deceptions perpetrated by self-serving politicians.
