Low Taxes and Small Government

Sam Brownback was the first modern-day conservative to be elected governor of Kansas, the culmination of a rightward shift in the states often-dominant Republican Party. This book is a detailed case study of the policies implemented over his two terms as governor, paying particular attention to the impact on state government and services, the economy, public education, and the business environment. The authors provide extensive background, historical evidence, and detailed references. The books real-world relevance is grounded in a discussion of similar policies in other states as well as the US federal government.
