The Shocking Truth



about the Collapse of American Power

A stirring call for direct action, America: The Lost Empire is a must-read for anyone concerned about the wayward direction of the United States. This timely and terrifying book outlines how our political “leaders,” corporate sharks and the moneyed class took advantage of this country over the past several decades, sowing the seeds that are now resulting in unprecedented economic collapse and social strife. Perpetual war, unbridled corruption, racism and stolen elections are no longer only the domain of the third world; as author and blogger Bernard Ball shows, it’s the story of the U.S.A. in the 21st century.





What’s needed now, Ball argues, is for Americans to wake up en masse and take their country back. History shows that the moral character of a nation matters when it comes to long-term survival and America is no exception. In a state of gradual moral, political and economic decline, our country faces the same fate of the imperialist British Empire, the great Babylonian Empire and the mighty Roman Empire. Those are now just artifacts in museums and chapters in history books. Can anything save America from being another lost empire?



Through it all, Bernard Ball investigates how the entrenched power structure uses religion, class and race to bolster its legitimacy—all the while enriching their bank accounts—for a story so shocking you’ll want to shout from the rooftops.
