Why is it that the most prosperous nation of our time has so many social problems? With a GDP nearly three times that of the next closest nation, why does an economic power house like the United States have such an unstable economy, a population with millions of poor and homeless people, enormous crime rates, and severe distrust for the government? The Efficiency Theory delivers a powerful examination into how the structure of government, along with societal trends, have created the mass of problems that continue to delay human progress, deteriorate our quality of life, and prevent us from efficiently working together. As many people have fallen victim to corporate greed, political voracity, and economic distress, this book provides a path towards a stable society where people can work together in their most efficient capacity, by working purpose driven and passionate careers, eliminating wasteful programs, and focusing on universal progress. The author provides a comprehensive perspective on the changes that should occur to escape the imminent collapse of our civilization. The Efficiency Theory offers hope for the future by providing the blueprints to a society that runs so efficiently that poverty and crime are eliminated, power and politics are neutralized, and freedom and equality are provided for all people.
