So let me get this straight, here's what I've established from this conversation:
(1) You haven't read most of the thing.
(2) You rely on other people trashing it for your views, including a bunch of socialists who don't write very well but said some stuff on the internet.
(3) You actually don't have much to quibble about when the substance is laid out, except that you think there was too much hyperbole that needed to be dialed back.
(4) Let's repeat that last one, you, Sebby, the Sultan of Overstatement, the Pooba of Puffery, object to a journalist using hyperbole.
(5) Sorry, just can't stop laughing. Really? This is what it comes down to?
