Book Synopsis Government Is Good by : Douglas J. Amy
Download or read book Government Is Good written by Douglas J. Amy and published by Dog Ear Publishing. This book was released on 2011 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why a book defending government? Because for decades, right-wing forces in this country have engaged in a relentless and irresponsible campaign of vicious government bashing. Conservatives and libertarians have demonized government, attacked basic safety net programs like Medicare, and undermined vital regulations that protect consumers, investors, workers, and the environment. This book takes on this anti-government movement and shows that most of its criticisms of this institution are highly exaggerated, misleading, or just plain wrong. In reality, American government - despite its flaws - plays a valuable and indispensable role in promoting the public good. Most government programs are working well and are actually improving the lives of Americans in innumerable ways. Democratic government is a vital tool for making our world a better place; and if we want an America that is prosperous, healthy, secure, well-educated, just, compassionate, and unpolluted, we need a strong, active, and well-funded public sector. Part I: Why Government is Good. The section of the book describes how government acts as a force for good in society. One chapter chronicles a day in the life of an average middle-class American and identifies the myriad ways that government programs improve our lives. Other chapters describe the forgotten achievements of government; how government is the only way to effectively promote public values like justice and equality; and how a free market economy would be impossible without the elaborate legal and regulatory infrastructure provided by government. Part II: The War on Government. This section of the book chronicles the unrelenting assault on government being waged by conservative forces in this country. Chapters describe how cuts in social programs and rollbacks of regulations have harmed the health, safety, and welfare of millions of Americans and how these assaults have taken place on many fronts - in Congress, the administrative branch, and the federal courts, as well as on the state and local level. Also addressed: how the right's radical anti-government agenda is out of touch with the views and priorities of most Americans, and what the real truth is about government deficits. Part III: How to Revitalize Democracy and Government. There are, in fact, some problems with American government, and we need to address these if we are to restore Americans' faith in this institution. One of the main problems with our government is that it is not accountable and responsive enough to the public. Moneyed special interests too often win out over the public interest. Chapters in this section describe this problem and how we can fix it. There are several reforms - including public financing of elections - that could help our government live up to its democratic ideals. The final chapter discusses strategies for building a pro-government coalition in this country.

Book Synopsis Irresponsible Citizenship by : Jean-François Caron
Download or read book Irresponsible Citizenship written by Jean-François Caron and published by Peter Lang Us. This book was released on 2021 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Covid-19 pandemic has revealed the serious crisis of political authorities that liberal societies are currently experiencing. Indeed, a significant number of individuals living in these societies did not hesitate to defy the sanitary rules enacted by their government which has made it difficult for them to stop the virus from spreading. What can explain such a situation? This is what this book is discussing. Whether it is the growing popularity of conspiracy theories, the distrust towards governments or cultural and religious beliefs that take precedence over the respect of governments' directives, all these factors that have led so many individuals to act in an irresponsible way during the pandemic find their roots in the liberal tradition as it originated in the 18th century and in its more recent development which has had the effect of decentralizing the individual from his collective responsibilities in favor of an almost unlimited enjoyment of his individual freedom. This health crisis has revealed the urgency for liberal societies to establish a better balance between collective interest and individual freedom through responsible citizenship capable of protecting its citizens against the adoption of draconian measures when they will be struck again by upcoming pandemics that appear to be unfortunately inevitable.

Book Synopsis The People Have Spoken (and They Are Wrong) by : David Harsanyi
Download or read book The People Have Spoken (and They Are Wrong) written by David Harsanyi and published by Regnery Publishing. This book was released on 2014-03-10 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Democracy may be one of the most admired ideas ever concocted, but what if it’s also one of the most harebrained? After many years of writing about democracy for a living, David Harsanyi has concluded that it’s the most overrated, overused, and misunderstood idea in political life. The less we have of it the better. “Democracy” is not synonymous with “freedom.” It is not the opposite of tyranny. In fact, the Founding Fathers knew that democracy can lead to tyranny. That’s why they built so many safeguards against it into the Constitution. Democracy, Harsanyi argues, has made our government irrational, irresponsible, and invasive. It has left the American people with only two options—domination by the majority or a government that can’t possibly work. The modern age has imbued democracy with the mystique of infallibility. But Harsanyi reminds us that the vast majority of political philosophers, including the founders, have thought that responsible, limited government based on direct majority rule over a large, let alone continental scale was a practical impossibility. In The People Have Spoken, you’ll learn: Why the Framers of our Constitution were intent on establishing a republic, not a “democracy” How democracy undermines self-government How shockingly out of touch with reality most voters really are Why democracy is an economic wrecking ball—and an invitation to a politics of envy and corruption How the great political philosophers from Plato and Aristotle to Burke and Tocqueville predicted with uncanny accuracy that democracy could lead to tyranny Harsanyi warns that if we don’t recover the Founders’ republican vision, “democracy” might very well spell the end of American liberty and prosperity.
Book Synopsis Broken Trust by : Stephen M. Griffin
Download or read book Broken Trust written by Stephen M. Griffin and published by University Press of Kansas. This book was released on 2015-08-21 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Variously and roundly perceived as gridlocked, incompetent, irresponsible, and corrupt, American government commands less respect and trust today than perhaps at any time in the nation's history. But the dysfunction in government that we like so little, along with the policy disasters it engenders, is in fact a product of that deep and persistent distrust, Stephen M. Griffin contends in Broken Trust, an accessible work of constitutional theory and history with profound implications for our troubled political system. Undertaken with a deep concern about the way our government is performing, Broken Trust makes use of the debate over dysfunctional government to uncover significant flaws in the conventional wisdom as to how the Constitution works. Indeed, although Americans strongly believe that our government is dysfunctional, they are just as firmly convinced that the Constitution still works well. Griffin questions this conviction by examining how recent policy disasters—such as the 9/11 terrorist attacks, the response to Hurricane Katrina, and the 2008 financial crisis—are linked to our constitutional system. This leads him to pose the question of whether the government institutions we have inherited from the eighteenth century are poor fits for contemporary times. Griffin argues that understanding the decline of trust in government requires investigating the historical circumstances of the last several decades as well as the constitutional experience of the states. In particular, he examines “hybrid democracy,” the form of constitutionalism prevailing in California and other western states that combines Madisonian-style representative government with direct democracy. Hybrid democracy offers valuable lessons relevant to our contemporary difficulties with dysfunctional government at the national level. These lessons underpin the agenda for reform that Griffin then proposes, emphasizing democratic innovations aimed at producing both more effective government and greater trust in our political institutions. Building on a better understanding of the sources and consequences of government dysfunction, his book holds genuine hope, as well as practical possibilities, for the repair of our broken political and constitutional system.
Book Synopsis Point of View 2-Book Bundle by : Brent Rathgeber
Download or read book Point of View 2-Book Bundle written by Brent Rathgeber and published by Dundurn. This book was released on 2014-09-25 with total page 443 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This special 2-book bundle contains two cutting edge pieces of political analysis. Irresponsible Government examines the current state of Canadian democracy in contrast to the founding principles of responsible government established by the Fathers of Confederation. The book examines the failure of modern elected representatives to perform their constitutionally mandated duty to hold the prime minister and his cabinet to account. It further examines the modern lack of separation between the executive and legislative branches of government and the disregard with which the executive views Parliament. The book seeks to shine light on the current power imbalances that have developed in Canadian government. There are few greater tragedies than a war waged by a society against itself. As Time Bomb shows, a catastrophic confrontation between Canada’s so-called "settler" and First Nations communities is not only feasible, it is, in theory, inevitable. Grievances, prejudice, and other factors all combine to make the likelihood of a First Nations uprising very real. This book describes how a nationwide insurgency could unfold, how the "usual" police and military reactions to First Nations protests would only worsen such a situation, and how, on the other hand, innovative policies might defuse the smouldering time bomb in our midst. The question all Canadians and First Nations must answer is this: Must we all suffer the disaster of a great national insurgency or will we act together to extinguish the growing danger in our midst? Includes Irresponsible Government Time Bomb

This book was released on 2021-09-12 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Government is not a solution to our problem; government is the problem." —President Ronald Reagan Looking all around us, it is evident that the United States of America is heading down a course of economic, financial, and social ruin thanks, in most part, to an irresponsible and careless government. Author G. Williamson, through his passionate writing, shows us why he believes that our out-of-control government no longer cares about our Constitution, economy, businesses, or families. It is a government ruled not by the people but by progressive reformers who seek to place restrictions on our individual freedoms. Through his powerful words, G. Williamson suggest that the key to turning around this unrestrained government is to understand the reasons for its malfunction. From bailouts, to the economy and jobs, to foreign policy, to our tax system, he effectively informs us of the self-destructive and risky path our government is leading us down. He also describes what we as American citizens can do to reverse this dangerous and precarious direction in which our country is heading. Don't be left in the dark about the issues in our country any longer. Pick up this motivational and encouraging book today and delve into the Thoughts of an American Taxpayer. G. Williamson graduated from Southeast Missouri State in Cape Girardeau, Missouri, with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration. Although he grew up in the Midwest, he currently resides outside of Houston.
Download or read book Buck Wild written by Stephen Slivinski and published by HarperChristian + ORM. This book was released on 2006-08-13 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Makes a compelling case that the best protection for individual rights (and wallets) in America rests in divided government.” —The Denver Post This is a scathing look at how the Republican Party, once the paragon of fiscal conservativism, has embraced Big Government and become even more irresponsible with taxpayer money than the Democrats. Rather than delivering an authoritative history of the GOP over the past twenty-five years, Buck Wild seeks to discover how the party of Reagan—once guided by the promise of cutting government back to its core constitutional functions—eventually lost its head. “If you fell into a coma in November of 1994 and woke up yesterday, a lot of things might surprise you. But nothing would baffle you more than what has happened to the Republican Party. Stephen Slivinski can explain. Buck Wild tells a painful story, but it’s honest and true and well worth reading.” —Tucker Carlson, host of FOX News’ Tucker Carlson Tonight “Buck Wild does more than reveal what’s wrong with the Republicans. It reveals what’s wrong with us, the voters who put them in office. Politicians are foxes. But we insist on believing that some are guard dogs. We elect them to watch the hen house, and on the first Wednesday in November there’s nothing left but feathers.” —P. J. O’Rourke, #1 New York Times–bestselling author “During the course of Stephen Slivinski’s superbly researched chronicle, we meet some true conservative heroes from whom we can draw inspiration for the future.” —James P. Pinkerton, White House domestic policy aide under Presidents Ronald Reagan and George H. W. Bush
Book Synopsis The Transformation of America by : George E Pfautsch
Download or read book The Transformation of America written by George E Pfautsch and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2013-02-11 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The care of human life and happiness, and not their destruction, is the first and only legitimate object of good government". That observation was made by our third president, Thomas Jefferson. He also made the statement that "The course of history shows that as government grows, liberty decreases". This book chronicles the steady growth of our government since this nation was founded. It also notes the manner in which that growth has diminished the liberty of this nation's citizens. Each reader of this book and each citizen of this nation will decide for themselves the degree to which human life and happiness has been impacted by the growth of this nation's government over the course of its 236 year history. Our first president, George Washington in his farewell address to the nation stated that "Reason and experience forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle". This book will also review how the diminishment of the national morality in this nation has impacted the growth of government and the citizens of this nation.
