Diagnosis Red Tape
The administration of government must change if democracy is to survive.
Delving into the dysfunctional nature of the current administration processes in democratic government, Diagnosis Red Tape emphasizes that no form of political leadership or public policy is inherently superior to others.
Diagnosis Red Tape not only identifies the ineffectiveness and inefficiency prevalent in all government administrations but also highlights the potential benefits if a change were to occur.
It exposes why governments are unlikely to voluntarily implement such changes.
By demonstrating the straightforward nature of the necessary reforms, the book instills hope that positive transformations can be achieved, benefiting society as a whole.
“Democracy cannot succeed unless those who express their choice are prepared to choose wisely. The real safeguard of democracy, therefore, is education.” – Franklin D. Roosevelt, 32nd President of the United States of America.
In a democracy it is the will of the people that will force government to change.
Become aware. Become educated. Let your voice be heard.
Government needs to, in fact must, become more effective, more efficient and above all else prove their efforts are achieving the most important principle of democracy, to treat all people equally.
