Lean Together: An Agenda for Smarter Government, Stronger Communities, and More Opportunity for Women (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781500182090)

For too long progressives in Washington have put forth a picture of America in which government is the solution to every problem. Where a nanny state dictates our children's lunches, provides one-size-fits all health care, controls our education, and even determines what kinds of light bulbs we use. We've not only lost sight of what a healthy society looks like, but also forgotten that government is not the only -- or even the best -- solution to society's ills. Lean Together is 12 chapters, all written by female authors. It presents a better vision for America: smaller government, stronger communities, a vibrant economy, and more opportunity for women and men alike. It presents a vision of America in which republican ideals of limited government, virtue, and self-improvement are re-imagined and it offers concrete policy prescriptions that will rein in the progressive state, streamline government, and strengthen our economy. The IWF doesn't believe in a go-it-alone society. That's why this book also calls upon readers to join in making changes to ensure our communities provide greater opportunity and the potential for fulfillment, and to help is restore the idea that more freedom-not more government-is what will create truth health, security, prosperity, and ultimate happiness.
