Description
"The U.S. Government: A Citizen's Inquiry Into What It Is and Might Be" describes what we as citizens of the United States can do to make our government better serve us. Discussing everything from human nature's effect on government better serve us. Discussing everything from human nature's effect on government to tax policy and class struggle, this comprehensive volume covers the origins of the government, taxation, economics, and special interest politics. Also revealed is the most important challenge Americans face today: a change in attitude. Ideas are offered for a new world order and a revamped United Nations, which would be allowed to "approach the vital issue of prevention of armed conflict as it sees fit." Designed to generate widespread discussion among the citizenry, this book explains how participating in properly maintained institutions of government will become an important behavioral component of the fully functioning adult. If you are one of the millions of Americans who believes a change in government is necessary, this is a book you must read.
