We pay. They spend. That's the deal.Dan Devine rejects that identity. And this book will help you reject it too.CIVESTOR: Reclaiming Your Power as an Active Citizen introduces a powerful new framework built around one concept: you are not a taxpayer. You are a Civestor(TM) - a citizen who actively invests time, voice, energy, and presence in the democracy you are supposed to own.Drawing on his journey from a Hicksville childhood to elected Election District Leader in Suffolk County and founder of American Civic Power, Devine delivers both an inspiring civic identity and a practical toolkit for democratic action.
