Policies to Renew National Community

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Presented in the author's characteristic no-holds-barred style of wit and candor, this book casts a harsh light on the current state of American policy. The author argues this isn't American entitlement run amuck. Rather, he suggests there really is a powerful disconnect. But, he assures us hope is not lost and offers suggestions for how simple shifts in attitude and policy can move America back in a forward direction.
