Subtitled "How to Flawlessly Rig Elections, Bribe Any Politician, and Crush Your Political Enemies for Good".

This is a funny and satirical book that looks at our US system of government. No political group is spared from it's pointed wit. Two hundred thirty seven pages of drawings (cartoon character type) with written explanations.

A book that is recommended for its humor. Well worth a read

I'd like to mention a couple of other points about the book. We have all likely been taught that there are three branches of the Federal Gov't. The Legislative, Executive and Judicial. Well, the the busy Babylon Bees point out that there are actually four. The fourth being the Corporate Branch which works closely as in VERY CLOSELY with the Legislative Branch to adjust the needs of the nation (Corporation) in regards to protection from regulation (except for the little guys who get regulated) in return for unlimited wealth for the politicians. A very cozy relationship. The table on page 106 of the book shows how this important relationship works.
There is a chapter on your Constitutional rights. It includes a diagram of the musket and another of the "Fully Semi-Automatic Ghost Gun" which is very descriptive and includes the (until now rarely seen) antenna which allows for secret instructions to be received and the 'Clip' which hold lots of magazines.
A chapter on winning and rigging elections is there.
Money and government spending is addressed.

There are others topics as well and the book does not require lot of time to read due to its format.
Humorous and revealing in that the cozy relationships we "know" exist are here in print to be seen.
