Publisher's Synopsis
Washington is Divided, Broke, Broken, and Dysfunctional This book is a plan that you, the reader, can actually take action to improve your government. The country is already politically divided between Blue States and Red States with a small number of swing states that are sometimes Red and sometimes Blue. The book describes the problems with the federal government and why most people believe that our federal government will only deteriorate further with time. Total collapse of the government is considered a major possibility. I suggest in the book that there is a peaceful and workable plan that acknowledges the great national division. The separation of the country along philosophical lines producing two new sovereign countries is detailed. "Live and let live" is a main theme of this book. It is proposed that the states call for a constitutional convention in accordance with the US Constriction's amendment process. This convention would draft an amendment that would divide the United States into two new sovereign countries, one with Red priorities and one with Blue priorities. Each new country would start with the current US Constitution, national laws and precedents. After ratification of the amendment each new country would modify laws and make new laws without the objection or concurrence of the other new country. The book discusses how the proposed amendment would be implemented along with how the change would affect most of the current federal issues. Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, Obama Care, Immigrations, Taxes, education and many other issues are all presented. This book is a guide not to fix Washington but actually to make it irrelevant! This book is truly written for you and your friends - Pass it on.
