Reseña del libro "Nanny State (en Inglés)"

Martin Knox’s book is political philosophy fiction.

Paul’s philosophy is to oppose government social regulation, over-protection and over-reach in Australia.

He runs as an independent for a senate seat in a Federal election and is elected. The story is fiction.

Paul becomes aware of social regulation growing in State politics.

Working people are doubly alienated, by jobs they dislike and by the high expense of leisure. They satisfy their aggression by watching sport and entertainment, provided by The Spectacle for profits and votes. Paul takes proposals to parliament to ameliorate the learned helplessness which destroys minds and lives.

Paul wants to start a commune, but is confounded by over-regulation by the nanny state. He tries to start a new school but is thwarted by the nanny state.

His reaction to the nanny state manifests as opposition to the Net Zero carbon strategy, opposition to the Voice Referendum, opposition to compulsory voting and to mandatory Covid vaccination.

Is Paul’s bulwark against a nanny socialist spectacle effective, when he plans a non-violent protest march to overcome the Police and the State Government? His opposition is philosophical, logical, scientific, satirical and amusing.

Can Paul’s campaign bring freedom to Queenslanders without violence? Can the nanny state better represent their concern with their own interests and free them from government over-reach?

This book is Martin Knox’s eleventh, based on careers in engineering and teaching. His stories include innovative philosophy about Australia, competition, love, political parties, energy, superpowers, climate science, totalitarianism, enlightenment, the Spectacle, philosophy and Brisbane River.
