Objective: Freedom

THe book Objective Freedom is the first in a three part series.  This is to be followed by To Bind The Nations Wounds and then by Plebiscite.
This series of books are political fiction and action novels that depict the possibility of what could happen in America, if out-of-control welfare, foreign aide, and an ever expanding government bureaucracy are allowed to continue.

In an attempt to reduce expenses in the Federal Government, The President of the United States has cut six cabinet level positions from his staff. These reductions yielded some savings; however, the welfare rolls continued to expand with hordes of people applying for and receiving even more benefits. These increased expenditures resulted in the federal government plunging toward financial default. Expanding welfare benefits also saddled the states with additional debt.
Nine states make the radical decision to secede. Rallying together, these nine states form their own union, a sovereign coalition, separate from the United States.
Attempts are made to reunite the Union while also trying to get the United States back on its feet after riots and loss of credibility consumes it.
Meanwhile the new nation, The Coalition of South Western States has been formed under new leadership and rational laws. Entitlements are held to a minimum. The moral and political ideals of hard working folks in the Southwest no longer succumb to the ridicule and control by the liberal establishment. .
The story includes double dealings, attempted murder, high tech communications, romance, intrigue and is loaded with action throughout the book.

The book to follow describes the interaction between countries and the problems.

The final book calls for more military action and adventure.
