Book Reviews of Democracy for the Few
Book Review: Democracy for whom?
Summary: 3 Stars
M. Parenti does make some valid points in his book Democracy for the Few, but the reader must sift through all the propaganda to find them.
While the United States may not be a perfect country, I don't believe our system of government is as bad off as Parenti would have the reader think.
The solution he appears to propose for our social, economic, and governmental ills would amount to a Marxist/socialist revolution.There are no easy solutions to years of prejudice and repression, to bureaucratic waste, and political party manipulations, but that doesn't mean we throw the baby out with the bathwater.
