What if bribery were legal? What if there were a crowdfunding site
for public-works projects? What if you could sue corrupt
politicians? How would the country be different? The Best Congress
Money Can Buy and six other short stories display visions of our
society that are delightfully strange and provocative. Joe is a
congressman who openly sells his services to the highest bidder.
Nick is a drunken brawler who must pay for his crime in a
workhouse. Beth is a peaceful woman in a country where gun
ownership is mandatory. Their stories and others explore how our
political dysfunctions needn't be taken for granted, and small
changes in our political system can lead to meaningful changes in
our lives.
