A Citizen's Guide to Reforming American Politics
Authored by
Scott Chaney
America is in trouble. Our debt is spiraling out of control. Our politicians have become arrogant, rushing through bills they haven't read, while making only the faintest of pretenses to listen to those they were elected to represent. Neither party has shown the ability to rein in spending, nor provide effective solutions to our problems. Is it any wonder recent polling shows three quarters of us are angry at the federal government?
First time author Scott Chaney, "just an average guy from a small town in flyover country", sees the energy inherent in this anger as an opportunity to transform American politics. "We're at a perfect storm of righteous anger waiting to be directed towards great things. Should it fade without accomplishing something equal to its intensity we will have lost a great opportunity to fundamentally change American politics for the better."
That's what this book is about - how we, the American people, can channel our energy to make government more responsible, effective, efficient, and accountable. This is not a book of partisan solutions, contracts, or statements of purpose. Instead, Chaney presents an easily understood, palatable, and practical plan that has the potential to improve American politics profoundly. It truly is a citizen's guide to reforming American politics - one worthy of the Incredible Opportunity before us.
