A friend sent me a copy of this book when I was first elected to the City Council, in 1993. I appreciated the book immensely and I have gifted each newly elected first timer to the Council with a copy of the book. I don't know if they appreciate its content as much as I do or if they actually get around to reading it. I continue to offer a copy to the newly elected.
So much in government should be managed by the simple use of Common Sense. I strongly recommend it to everyone. And it is always available a Alibris.

Makes you think
This book gets to the heart of the problems that we as a nation are facing. The solution, of course, is to return to good old common sense in our laws and the processing of regulations.
