Aligning Values and Politics argues that empowering individuals for
self-actualization is an indispensable tool for attaining freedom;
therefore, politics must align with the promotion of
self-actualization. Private property rights have in the past helped
people to develop skills, but such rights were abused. Once these
rights are combined with an ethics of responsibility, the book
opens the doors to a nonpartisan analysis of income inequality,
inheritance, race relations, abortion and governance. The book
argues that the American government is engaged in producing "bread
and circuses," inducing people into living vicariously. Using the
ideas of Immanuel Kant, the authors claim that we can return to a
civil society that values independence rather than entitlements.
