Description:
Episode 616 - Philip Howard. Chairman, Common Good, author, Life Without Lawyers
Philip Howard’s new book, Life Without Lawyers , argues that the expansion of lawsuits and bureaucracy over recent decades has “engulfed our daily lives.” People increasingly no longer feel free to do what’s right. Reclaiming our everyday freedoms, Howard proposes, requires restoring the authority of judges, teachers and others in responsibility to make choices for the common good. Today, law is more akin to a free-for-all, causing free citizens to go through the day looking over their shoulders instead of where they want to go. Air Date: 5/17/09
