Politicians, Economists and the Supreme Court at Work: The Founders Betrayed

By Timothy P. Roth

Presented as an engaging thought experiment, Politicians, Economists and the Supreme Court at Work examines the metastasizing federal role through two different means: first, as it relates to the increasing concerns of a contemporary nation, and second, the depth to which that nation's Founders would be appalled by the actions of their successors. Additionally, the book provides a critical appraisal of the burgeoning federal enterprise and the federal government's 'on-, off-, and off-off' budget activities - ultimately answering the question, 'What would the Founders do?'
