As the economy chugs along in the spring of 2029, a welder in Columbus, Ohio loses his job along with dozens of coworkers. A Columbus-based airline unexpectedly files for bankruptcy protection. Across the nation unemployment jumps and economic growth mysteriously slows.

Policymakers in Washington think it’s just a blip. Even though the “blip” causes revenues to decline—pushing dangerously high national debt even higher—they do nothing, thinking that the economy will bounce back in a month or two.

They couldn’t have been more wrong.

The Eagle Has Crashed is the story of the day when America’s national debt leads to an economic collapse, and the anger that erupts at policy makers for causing a disaster. Most of The Eagle Has Crashed takes place in central Ohio, and it documents the differing reactions of ordinary Americans to a government-induced calamity. As the economic meltdown caused by excessive federal debt worsens, it brings out the best—and worst—in ordinary Ohioans and Americans across the land.
