Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Government of the United States When duty whispers low, "Thou must." The youth replies, "I can." In time of peace the duty is not so well done. Many men disdain to take a share in political affairs. They do not like the equality to which they must submit. Others take part in them only to promote their own ambitions, others even for purposes of money-making, or personal gain. But in general I believe the purposes of the American people are lofty and patriotic. It is clear that the larger and more general the interest in public affairs, the purer and more patriotic purpose will be the more likely to prevail. Corruption and self-seeking, in the nature of the case, must be limited in their operation. No wealth can bribe, and no personal ambition or corrupt desire can control, the political action of a people of eighty millions where suffrage is universal. So the two things that are necessary are, first, that the whole people shall be instructed, and second, that the whole people shall be inspired to take their full share in the conduct of the state. To accomplish the first of these every man must have some leisure and opportunity to inform himself in political matters. Where brain or body is worn out by constant drudgery, occupying all the working hours of the day, the knowledge and intelligence needed for the conduct of the state become impossible. This consideration has always furnished, to my mind, the chief argument for tariff legislation and for legislation regulating hours of labor. The American workman is to govern the state. To govern the state he must have leisure and his mental faculties not exhausted by drudgery. So he must have wages sufficient to educate his children, and to give him the decencies and comforts of life essential to self-respecting citizenship, and reasonable leisure when his day's work is done. Without these, he will, if he retains his vote, be sure so to govern the state that all its other members will suffer.

Download or read book Government and the American Economy written by Price V. Fishback and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2008-09-15 with total page 634 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The American economy has provided a level of well-being that has consistently ranked at or near the top of the international ladder. A key source of this success has been widespread participation in political and economic processes. In The Government and the American Economy, leading economic historians chronicle the significance of America’s open-access society and the roles played by government in its unrivaled success story. America’s democratic experiment, the authors show, allowed individuals and interest groups to shape the structure and policies of government, which, in turn, have fostered economic success and innovation by emphasizing private property rights, the rule of law, and protections of individual freedom. In response to new demands for infrastructure, America’s federal structure hastened development by promoting the primacy of states, cities, and national governments. More recently, the economic reach of American government expanded dramatically as the populace accepted stronger limits on its economic freedoms in exchange for the increased security provided by regulation, an expanded welfare state, and a stronger national defense.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from American History and Government: A d104-Book on the History and Civil Government of the United States It is safe to say that a very large proportion of our pupils leave school without becoming sufficiently familiar with our system of government. The curriculum of the high school is crowded. New subjects are constantly being introduced for one reason or another, and this tends to the undue crowding of the course of study and to bringing into the high school many subjects that properly belong to the college. The result is that time is not allowed for the thorough drilling and for the supplementary reading on those subjects in which some solid elementary knowledge should be expected of all the pupils in our public schools.
