The Buffer Zone August Patterson

In 1957, Ayn Rand gave readers a look at a dystopian United States. Her thought-provoking novel, Atlas Shrugged, grew in popularity after the financial crisis in 2007. The novel's popularity grew as it drew eerie parallels with the existing political climate. The Buffer Zone: A New Nation is this generation's Atlas Shrugged. In the year 2021 the United States is suffering from economic woes, angry citizens, and major border security issues. One man is ready to make a change. Jerry Virgil is a man with many talents who devises a plan for substantial change. After cartel members murder his wife and daughters, Jerry begins a cathartic journey to end the problems associated with the insecure Mexico border.
