Publisher's Synopsis
This work sets out to show that governments internationally are taking too much in terms of taxes and, consequently, leave their "supporters" unable to pay for the necessities of life. The politicians blame the banks for irresponsible lending, where both parties are thought to be equally at fault here. Politicians also seem to have gotten the "wrong end of the stick" with regard to climate change, its causes, and the tragic consequences for humanity. This work sets out an explanation of said changes and offers solutions to overcome the phenomenon. Political shortcomings appear to be because our leaders are mainly listening to advisers who have little to do with the problems of the Man in Street. This work concludes by showing how to correct the exposed political shortcomings by the simplified but effective use of the ballot box.
