| Description: |
To "fight for your rights," or anyone else's, is not just to debate principles but to haggle over budgets. |
| Synopsis: |
The simple insight that all legally enforceable rights cost money reminds us that freedom is not violated by a government that taxes and spends, but requires it-and requires a citizenry vigilant about how money is allocated. Drawing from these practical, commonsense notions, The Cost of Rights provides a useful corrective to the all-or-nothing feel of much political debate nowadays (The Economist). |
