In this novel, China's attempt to complete the creation of the United Socialist States of America is thwarted by American iPhone technology. China's 50-year campaign needed the creation of a Social Credit System (SCS) modelled after Beijing's complete control of all its citizens. Millions of cameras watch every move, and SCS demerits ruin people's lives forever, complete with prison terms. In the background, China's Chairman realizes just how bad their economy is and devises plans to steal American wealth. They successfully steal a huge sum from retirement funds managed by Morgan Stanley to provide wages to unpaid workers. America's Apple iPhone is manufactured in China--500,000 a day--which the Chinese government seizes in order to keep the profits. An undeclared Cell Phone War commences. The war ends with American technology stopping the use of 7-milion iPhones in the city of Tianjin, the world's busiest port. The Chinese personal activities and commerce come to a halt, and they are forced to sue for peace. President Preston uses the end of the Cell Phone War to begin programs to stop the march toward Socialism in America. A new era of cooperation begins to allow America to continue to implement Thomas Jefferson's visions for the Republic.
