Broken - the rise and fall of the Dollar Empire, tells the story of decades of distrust, conspiracy, and political theatre. It exposes why public faith in government has collapsed in a nation where individual 'reality' now outweighs shared truth.Where money, or the absence of it following endless foreign wars, soaring debt, have hollowed out the world’s richest nation. Where poverty spreads while political leaders argue over foundational building blocks of any vibrant economy. Broken - the rise and fall of the Dollar Empire exposes the myths America tells itself to avoid confronting its contradictions. Romanticising freedom, while millions were in bondage. Mythologising its open doors, only to slam them shut. Championing democracy, while building barriers at home.Projecting strength outward, while turning their weapons inwards. Hoarding wealth and power like an 'wicked stepmother,' only to send their huntsmen out to strike down foes wherever they find them.Like the story of Columbus 'discovering' America, a tale cobbled together from cherry‑picked truths, convenient omissions, and competing versions of reality, Broken tells the story of America you won’t want to miss.
