The Department of Obvious Reforms takes a walk through the overlooked disasters of everyday governance, and asks the question responsible adults are not supposed to ask in public: why is it still like this?This collection of short chapters delivers compact insights in digestible bites. Each one picks a familiar mess, shows how incentives are currently wired, then proposes small structural shifts that nudge behaviour, trim waste and reward the people who keep things running.The approach is simple. No grand ideology. No saviour figures. Just straightforward breakdowns, stark reminders that expose the absurd, and practical changes that a moderately committed nation could adopt without needing a revolution. The tone is dry, occasionally sharp, and allergic to the usual excuses.Perfect for those who prefer politics that works, economics without the spin, and dry humour to ease the weight.If scrolling the headlines leaves you fuming, then crack open the door to real fixes with this playbook for game-changing reforms.
