Statism Sucks! is a satiric and radical examination of the direction in which the state should move in the next century. With both sides of political spectrum, in the US and the UK, failing fundamentally to check the spread of the state, the politically motivated seek to find a solution to the ever-expanding leviathan. Each session of Parliament and of the US Congress sees more and more laws passed that do little to solve the problems that still remain in education, health and poverty. Is the state the answer to all problems? Or to any problems? This modern day treatise aims to provoke thought on a new and radical view of how to change government for the better. Written in a style that is approachable, not patronising: rather than interrupting the flow of reading with frequent quotes and references, Statism Sucks! contains a few pithy quotes. If this treatise is successful, it will amuse and anger the reader, preferably at the same time.
