Conservastan: A New Modest Proposal - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

America over the last few decades has experienced a widening gulf between those who wish to have an informed and factual basis for local, state and national policy and those who refuse to even discuss facts. The factions include those who treasure national security and those who happily open the gates to our most dedicated adversaries. Those who want to see millions of people sick, poor, unhappy and deprived of freedoms and voting rights and those who wish to avoid this. Those who wish to see America turned into a dictatorial oligarchical fascist state and those who wish to avoid this. This book explores the most important differences between the two factions and explains in plain language who is working to make problems better and who is making them worse, and how. A permanent and feasible but nevertheless shocking solution to the problem is offered, in a Jonathan Swift-style modest proposal, as a means of illuminating the lack of good faith by conservatives in America and attempting to prod the guilty into becoming informed and productive members of our democratic republic.
