Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the flaws in the United States' system of government and how it often fails to reflect the will of the people effectively. The author traces the problem back to the long ballot, which requires voters to cast ballots for numerous offices, leading to uninformed voting and increased power for political organizations. The book advocates for a shorter ballot, reducing the number of elected offices to only those that require public scrutiny, while advocating for the appointment of less important officials.
