Why do simple, sensible decisions — fixing a pothole, opening a lemonade stand, hiring an employee — get buried under rules written by people voters never elected and can't vote out?

In The Death of Common Sense, lawyer and bestselling author Philip K. Howard makes the case — in plain English, in under 300 pages — that America's regulatory system has grown so detailed and rigid that it ties the hands of the very people trying to do the right thing, while driving up costs for families and businesses who have no seat at the table when the rules get written.

It's a fast, accessible read, and it sets up exactly the conversation we want to have this month: who should decide which regulations become law — unelected agencies, or the legislators we actually vote for? That's the question at the heart of the REINS Act, and we'll be talking about both the book and the bill.

Grab a copy (or reach out and I'll send you one), give yourself a couple of evenings to read it, and join us in September to talk about what accountable government should actually look like.

Books, drinks, and snacks are on me — just bring an opinion or two. Let's learn something together. 🥂

Join a laid-back book club in the Hoover/Birmingham, AL area exploring how the economy, healthcare costs, and tax policy affect everyday life — through short, plain-language reads and real conversation over drinks. Meetup: Wednesday, 9/30 at Sticks N Stones Cocktail Bar in Hoover.
