About this audiobook
H. L. Mencken looks at American politics and is not kind. He starts with a small clause of the Constitution, which says a representative must live in the state he serves. In his view, it has helped to produce petty local bosses, safe seats and a long decline in the honesty of the men who sit in Congress.
This essay comes from Civilization in the United States, a 1922 collection edited by Harold Stearns. Read by Tony J Martin in forty-one minutes.
For readers who like Mencken sharp.
