Publisher's summary

Thirty years of telling Americans they don’t need families, communities, or a shared history is destroying what made our country the envy of the world.

While many Americans have worried about China, open borders, opioids, failing communities, and families in crisis, our elites have told us that’s all fine because it’s not only inevitable; it’s for the best.

Every part of our nation is now in decline, and it’s all connected.

In Decades of Decadence, Marco Rubio exposes the elites’ attacks on the four key elements of American strength: good local jobs, stable families, geographical communities, and a sovereign nation that serves as a beacon of freedom and prosperity. These have been eroded not only by globalization, but by the lies we tell ourselves, including, “Anyone who loves each other is a family,” “Real community can be found on the internet,” and “We’re all citizens of the world.”

It’s not too late to reject these errors. America remains a powerful and wealthy nation, built on timeless truths ingrained in the very creation of mankind. But we cannot afford another misguided and decadent decade. In this book, Rubio shows how we can avoid another dark age and restore America’s place as the global ideal of harmony, opportunity, and democracy.

A Masterpiece!

Marco presents a brilliant and erudite history of how America has succumbed to the Marxist ideology of the “progressive elites” over the last several decades. Most importantly he presents an encouraging and proactive plan for America’s future!

A must-listen

This is one of the most important books of this century. Rubio clearly articulates our present position, how we got here, and what we as a nation need to do immediately in order to turn the tide in America before it is too late. An absolute must-listen.

A wake-up call

As an academician in both secondary and higher education for over twenty years, I can attest to the accuracy of Rubio’s disturbing account of the degeneracy of our educational institutions. As a pastor of both small and large churches for the previous nearly thirty years, I have grieved over the infiltration of heterodoxy into our churches and the decline in the religious faith in our communities. As a grateful citizen of a great nation, I am deeply disturbed by the corruption within the financial sector and the disregard for common good capitalism. Marco Rubio has accurately identified the causes of the decadence of the past few decades. However, he has not given up. Rather he offers hope and a pathway to renewal. His message must be heard or we will leave our progeny to languish under the tyranny of China and its ruthless dictatorship. Put succinctly, this book is a must read.

America wake up

America needs to hear this
how quickly we can lose all if we don’t get out and vote these leaders out of power. Save America now or we will be like Cuba or China. So scary what is happening in our own country.

Rubio for President

Speaking truth to power is a risky proposition, but Marco Rubio does not shy away from it. With courage and clarity, he identifies not just what went wrong, BUT what must be done to correct the mistakes of the past and move America forward. It is said that those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it. Senator Rubio Is standing up to the challenge of moving America into a new century...to create and bravely implement solutions to TODAY'S problems. As he has said, it won't be easy, but America has risen to challenges and come out the other side stronger. Come on, America...we can do this!
