"Brightly illuminating! Tumbled People offers a gracious invitation and a guide through the stages that we can expect to experience on the sacred journey of faith. Jacci not only describes the passages and how they change the way we view God, ourselves, and our life-world, but invites active participation in an authentic process towards spiritual maturation through ancient spiritual practices. A wonderful companion for those who are willing to undertake the journey of faithing throughout a lifetime." -The Rev. Canon Catherine Gregg, D.Min."I remember the first time I did a personality test and realized I wasn't weird but was a person with a unique but recognizable personality. It was revolutionary in my life because it helped me make sense of who and how I was in the world. I think Jacci's book will accomplish the same thing for those who are deconstructing their beliefs and questioning their faith. This book is like a spiritual map and just may help them realize that they aren't lost, but that they are on a very clear path of spiritual progressand growth." -David Hayward, aka the NakedPastor"In an age when everyone is deconstructing and reconstructing their faith experience, Tumbled People offers the tools needed to explore more deeply the stages of faith.

The primary business of government is to develop, implement, and strengthen the conditions that enhance the quality of life of all citizens. Taxation is required to fund government operations to produce and deliver the essential public goods and services that enhance and strengthen citizens' quality of life and standard of living. Countries like Ethiopia that are not endowed with natural resources such as oil, minerals, and precious metals rely heavily on tax revenues collected from citizens, residents, and businesses.To effectively achieve this goal, government policymakers must understand:What matters for quality of life?What must be done to enhance citizens' quality of life?How would the government fund the programs designed to improve citizens' living standards over the next ten years? AndHow must the government collaborate with citizens, businesses, residents, and development partners to implement and manage programs that tangibly improve citizens' quality of life?Citizens' quality of life and living standards are inextricably linked to the quantity, quality, and access to education, healthcare services, clean water, sanitation, agriculture and nutritious food supplies, peace, justice and security, transport, and communication infrastructures, including roads, bridges, telecommunications, and internet connectivity, among others. Quality of life and citizens' living standards are also conditional on citizens' income-generating abilities, productivity, and overall national income equality. Developing and strengthening the conditions that enhance citizens' standard of living require massive amounts of investments. A primary source of funds is tax revenue collected from citizens, businesses, and residents. Taxes are imposed by law. This book links taxation with citizens' prosperity and well-being. It identifies how a tax policy should be formulated and how effectively, equitably, and efficiently taxes should be collected.

What makes a person choose justice over self-interest?When Everett Stern landed his dream job as HSBC Bank's new Anti-Money Laundering Compliance Officer, he never imagined the career move would lead to international notoriety as a whistleblower.During his time at HSBC, Stern discovered that the bank deliberately failed to maintain anti-money laundering policies, allowing for billions of dollars of drug proceeds and terrorist funding to be laundered through the U.S. financial system. Stern knew he could not stand by and allow this to continue. In 2011, he alerted the U.S. authorities of his findings. The ensuing investigation resulted in HSBC being issued with an unprecedented $1.9 billion dollar fine.But the pursuit of justice came at a high personal cost to Stern. His banking career was over, and the experience left him disillusioned.In Dark Money and Private Spies, Stern finally shares the full account of his experience with the corruption, espionage, and injustice that plague today's financial and legal systems. He details both the precursors to his defining moment and the explosive aftermath, which saw him blacklisted from the financial industry. From his current position as a Senate candidate and Intelligence Director of a private intelligence agency, Tactical Rabbit, Stern offers unique insight into this booming sector. Part true crime thriller and part condemnation of America's failed systems, it's a sobering tale of one whistleblower's fight for justice.
