Unlawful Government: Preserving America in a Post-Constitutional Age [Paperback]

Wilton H. Strickland (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: July 26, 2006

Unlawful Government presents historical and legal evidence to argue that the federal government has utterly cast off its constitutional limitations, thereby transforming America from a voluntary, civil society into a compulsory, political one. Such massive concentration of political power in one entity’s hands contradicts both the law and the modern world, whose hallmarks are decentralization, competition, and individual freedom. The book ultimately recommends that States and local communities re-assert their independence, either immediately or incrementally, in order to unravel the illicit federal power and to allow diverse communities to pursue their priorities free from unlawful federal intrusion.

About the Author

Wilton H. Strickland graduated from the University of Virginia School of Law in 2000. Prior to attending the law school that Thomas Jefferson founded, Mr. Strickland graduated Phi Beta Kappa from the university that Thomas Jefferson himself attended: the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg, Virginia. These experiences imbued Mr. Strickland with a deep respect for America and her founding principles, among them the people’s duty and right to question the legitimacy of government when it exceeds its mandate. He practices law in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where he was born and raised.
