As a time of unprecedented government spending, historic deficits, and gathering foreign threats, America stands at a crossroads. We can either reassert fiscal discipline and reduce the government to the size envisioned by our Founders, or we can continue on the current path of spending ourselves into oblivion. In Restoring the Republic, Republican congressman Devin Nunes lays out a detailed agenda for solving the menacing problems that threaten our nation's future. Born and raised in the breadbasket of central California, thirty-six-year-old Nunes has seen firsthand how the convergence of big government, bug business, and the radical Left has wreaked havoc on entire communities, turning the once-thriving framland of the San Joaquin Valley into a blighted desert reminiscent of the Dust Bowl. Now the same forces are doing their damage on the national level, threatening America's very foundation. But Nunes has a plan to stop them. This book reveals: How America can break its Middle East oil dependence and become an energy powerhouse; Reforms that can keep Social Secutiry and Medicare from brankrupting the Treasury; A simple, fair tax code that can restore economic growth; A foreign policy that will better protect America's interests; Why politicians from both parties won't discuss the single most crucial reform for restoring our Republic. Packed with revealing, behind-the-scenes anecdotes from the halls of the Capitol, Restoring the Republic sounds the alarm on the malicious alliance of forces that is endangering America and offers concrete solutions to keep America strong and free." - from the rear outer jacket. "In common sense logic and language, Rep. Devin Nunes outlines how both Republican and Democratic administrations and congresses in the past have nearly bankrupted the country, wedded to a utopian social, economic, and cultural agenda that we can neither pay for nor will ever work. Most importantly, he offers not just a critique of these depressing times, but also a conservative bluepirnt for national renewal, that, if followed, would allow us to pay off our debts, reform a corrupt political system, harness out of control entitlements, and utilize all our own energy sources." - Victor Davis Hanson, Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University, and columnist for National Review Online. "David Nunes is one of a new generation of Republican politicians who articulate the frustrations of millions of ordinary AMericans with the way their country - or at least their government - has lost sight of the first principles embedded in the Constitution. A bleiever in freedom in all its varieties and a skeptic of big government, he reads like one of the true sons of the Reagan Revolution." - Niall Ferguson, Laurence A. Tisch Professor of History at Harvard University and William Aigler Professor of Business Administration at Harvard Business School. " "Most importantly, he [Rep. Nunes] offers not just a critique of these depressing times, but also a conservative bluepirnt for national renewal." - Victor Davis Hanson.
