A WHOLE NEW WAY OF GOVERNING AMERICA Same as the old. Except this one can never fail the American people.Ever feel that America has lost its magic? That life in America is no longer what it used to be? Told through the story of a new nation, the author exposes grave design flaws in America's much-heralded system of governance-the U.S. Constitution, the three branches of government, and the system of checks and balances-the whole enchilada.These flaws explain why life in America has been deteriorating, why Americans today with two incomes struggle to do what previous generations comfortably did on a single income, why people are increasingly divided and uncivil, and why the government today is more about drama than results. They also explain why the national debt is out of control - draining people's prosperity and creating a nightmare for future generations. Worse, there is no escape from significant adverse consequences for America in the not-too-distant future unless these flaws are fixed."The New USA" is the story of a new nation. At its founding, it had the option to adopt America's system of governance, but it rejected it. It reasoned that doing so would eventually lead it to the same sad state as America is in today. Instead, it tasked consultants with developing a new system of governance, similar to America's but without its flaws, so they can live the good life that 21st-century Americans are being cheated out of.The story packs a deceptively simple yet possibly the most impactful set of ideas for America since the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution.Publisher's Note: "The New USA" is a revised edition of the previously published "USA 2.0."
