Unlawful Government: Preserving America in a Post-Constitutional Age

Unlawful Government presents historical and legal evidence to argue that the federal government has utterly cast off its constitutional limitations, thereby transforming America from a voluntary, civil society into a compulsory, political one. Such massive concentration of political power in one entity’s hands contradicts both the law and the modern world, whose hallmarks are decentralization, competition, and individual freedom. The book ultimately recommends that States and local communities re-assert their independence, either immediately or incrementally, in order to unravel the illicit federal power and to allow diverse communities to pursue their priorities free from unlawful federal intrusion.
