Democracy in America?

This book explores the United States' failure to address pressing issues and how government consistently ignores the needs of its citizens. It argues for the need for more democracy and opportunity for citizens to shape what their government does. Through an unprecedented array of evidence, the authors offer proposals to curb the power of money, reform governing institutions, and democratize the House and Senate. This book presents a damning indictment, but the situation is far from hopeless. The only certainty is that inaction is not an option.
