Description

This book discusses a battle of ideologies that has lasted over a century and continues these days, pitting individuals who defend the American Experiment and the constitutional structure against individuals who are trying to find to replace that structure with one that empowers them to put into effect their ideas with little or no popular input. Progressives want governance by experts – bureaucrats with administrative power to make political judgments on how people will have to live, thereby narrowing the realm of their liberty. They expand the administrative state and create an identity of interest with Big Business. Both groups want an ever-expanding government: one motivated by power, the other by money. For its part, Big Business has set up camp on Capitol Hill, lavishly funding establishment politicians, of both parties, who rationalize the need for campaign money to the detriment of waging the good fight. Together, politicians and their cronies elbow the citizen off the policy-making stage. On the other hand, this state of affairs is kindling the passions of the constitutional structure’s greatest “check” on government excess – the American people. It is a fight that may be won. Deconstructing the Administrative State offers the blueprint for victory. Emmett McGroarty is a senior fellow on the American Principles Project Foundation (APPF).
