Defective and Corrupt Legislation: The Cause and the Remedy is a book written by Simon Sterne in 1885. The book is an in-depth analysis of the flaws and failures of the legislative process in the United States. Sterne argues that the root cause of these issues is the corrupt and self-serving nature of politicians and lawmakers.Throughout the book, Sterne provides numerous examples of how corrupt legislation has negatively impacted society, including the rise of monopolies, the exploitation of workers, and the erosion of civil liberties. He also offers several solutions to these problems, including the establishment of nonpartisan committees to oversee the legislative process and the implementation of stricter ethics guidelines for politicians.Overall, Defective and Corrupt Legislation: The Cause and the Remedy is a thought-provoking and insightful analysis of the flaws and failures of the legislative process in the United States, and offers practical solutions for addressing these issues.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
