The Solution: Repairing Our Broken Political System by Michael M. Stockdell

Author Michael M. Stockdell airs out his commentary regarding the state of the US government in his book, The Solution: Repairing Our Broken Political System. The book is a product of the author’s sentiments toward the current state of American politics. It is divided into four parts. The first section presents the author’s views regarding governmental failure over the years, providing historical examples to justify his arguments. The book’s second section counters the often-cited reasons people become captivated by the “big government idea.” In the third section, the author presents a number of constitutional amendments that provide a modern interpretation of the founders’ intentions for the nation. This amounts to the most through re-evaluation of constitutional principles since the Federalist papers. The fourth and final section recommends broad-brush modifications and replacements for dysfunctional programs while dealing with numerous existing political and social issues. According to the author, the book “will appeal to anyone (about two-thirds of the population, according to recent polls) dismayed by our dysfunctional and undemocratic political system and who wants to know why it has happened and what to do about it.” The Solution: Repairing Our Broken Political System is an eye-opening educational book that points out concrete solutions to contentious issues.
