New Cato Book: Ten Global Trends Every Smart Person Should Know: And Many Others You Will Find Interesting
In conclusion, I hope that you will buy this book and share it with your family and friends. It is meant to be a conversation piece.

I hope that it will alleviate some depression and anxiety, spark a fact ‐filled discussion around the dining room table, and maybe even change some minds. Strangers things have happened. Cheers!
