Better Parties, Better Government: A Realistic Program for Campaign Finance Reform
ISBN: 9780844742717 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 190 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Campaign finance laws essentially prohibit political parties from fundraising on behalf of individual candidates, forcing candidates to finance campaigns independently. This system favors wealthy candidates and protects incumbents while discouraging challengers. In Better Candidates, Better Parties, Better Government, Peter J. Wallison and Joel Gora argue that allowing parties a greater role in campaign fundraising would strengthen the parties, attract more qualified candidates, and free officeholders to govern without undue financial influence.

Bad History, Worse Policy: How a False Narrative About the Financial Crisis Led to the Dodd-Frank Act
ISBN: 9780844772387 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 552 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This timely study focuses on how the government-constructed narratives surrounding the collapse of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and the 2008 financial crisis shaped the policymaking that led to the Dodd-Frank Act. The book shows that every major provision of the act can be traced directly to that narrative, which ignored the government's own role and focused entirely on the errors of the private sector. In the next Congress, whether or not the Republicans are in control of the House and Senate, there will be a concerted effort to make changes in--or even repeal--the Dodd-Frank Act. The essays...

Financial Privacy, Consumer Prosperity, and the Public Good
ISBN: 9780815713173 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 58 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. American consumers have become accustomed to obtaining instant credit. The process requires that credit bureaus have easy access to sensitive financial information about individuals, compiled largely without their consent. This report examines the debate surrounding the role of the states in regulating these credit bureaus, especially in light of expiring amendments to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, which have allowed bureaus to continue these practices, exempting them from state laws that might obstruct them. How this controversy is resolved will have an important bearing on credit... American consumers have become accustomed to obtaining instant credit.
