- catalog abstract ""One Hundred Years Ago, the Progressives remade American government and community life for their own changing times - a moment that saw the birth of assembly line factories and one-size-fits-all products. In response, they built a government that was big, centralized, hierarchical, and bureaucratic. It is the twentieth century government we all know." "As the twenty-first century begins, America is changing again. Today, modern workplaces are geared toward empowering their employees with more personal decision-making power. Today, businesses are built on the idea of giving consumers a seemingly endless number of individual choices and personalized products." "But government lags behind those changes. We have an assembly line government in an Information Age, a politics that runs on the fumes of scandal and sound-bites because its ideas have run out of gas." "Now, Andrei Cherny offers a path forward that fits the world of this new century and the outlook of today's young people. The Next Deal shows us how to: take government decisions from bureaucrats and give them to ordinary Americans; break the stranglehold of powerful special interests on Washington; fix our failing public school system; require all young people to give a year of citizen service; return America to our bottom-up Jeffersonian roots and away from our modern top-down Hamiltonian rule; amend the Constitution to allow national initiatives; bring the promise of the New Economy to every American."--Jacket.".
