Incredible book
This book clearly outlines why the recession is here and it was written in 1991 predicting it. Although the writer is Christian, he does not explain the recession as an end of times brought on by God. Previous reviews written by Christian haters should be ignored. Larry Burkett explains clearly what the government has been doing wrong with regards to our economy and why it is doomed. I highly recommend this book.

Economics solid, Timing off
While Mr. Burkett's timing for the economic collapse is off the principals remain solid. Our economy will collapse and his book fortells how and why, while still offering hope. Much thought to chew on.

He says he's not a prophet, but he's spot on
Written in 1991, and just analyzing the US economy based on its accumulation of debt, Burkett makes some startling predictions, including a fictional chapter of what might happen that reads like the headlines of October 2008. With government spending out of control, even more promised spending on the way, and a people that now expects entitlements - the collapse has to be near. There simply isn't enough money in the WORLD to keep propping up the US debt.

The parallels with 1930s Germany and 1970s Argentina should wake up folks to the disastrous effects of runaway debt, both personal and national.

As a Christian, though, Burkett makes sure to point out that all these difficulties are really just symptoms of the greater root problem: the nation has turned from God.
