One in a Million: An IRS Travesty
Pat Shannon
Although the book is a novel, it is founded on truth, in more ways than one. Without ever once interfering with his course of telling a slam-bang story, Pat effectively weaves into the narrative factual data about the IRS and the Federal Reserve conspiracy and other little known aspects of American and world history. Pat's inspiration for the book was a real-life case of IRS treachery that led to the suicide of a good and decent American woman, Chavala Warman, in whose memory the book is dedicated. However, be warned: this is not a book for those who like to think that "our" government is good and that the IRS is just another government agency that?s trying to keep our system running. One in a Million describes how a gutsy group of Americans from all walks of life, a colorful collection of hard-driving patriots, decided that it was time to turn the tables on the IRS and give it a dose of its own medicine.
Some of the endorsements for the book are worth noting. For example, former U.S. Rep. George V. Hansen (R-Idaho), long an outspoken critic of the IRS, for which reason he was politically targeted by the Justice Department and jailed on trumped-up corruption charges that were later overturned, but only after he spent a year in prison, had this to say: "Pat Shannan uses the truth to create wonderful fiction." And Ted Gunderson, who retired as special agent in charge of the FBI office in Los Angeles, said that Shannan's book "provides an insight into the inner workings of an evil international shadow government that affects our lives on a daily basis."

Quote from Ayn Rand's, "Atlas Shrugged", 1957
When you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing -
When you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors -
When you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don’t protect you against them, but protect them against you -
When you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice -
You may know that your society is doomed."
" SAD, BUT TRUE "
“One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It is simply too painful to acknowledge — even to ourselves — that we’ve been so credulous.” ~Carl Sagan
