A City wakes to no water. Not a drop. Panic grips the suburbs. Hospitals, schools, businesses shut down. Fights break out in supermarkets over bottled water. We must now imagine life without nature's precious drop. After a devastating cyber-attack a city's water has been cut off. Terrorists have threatened to poison supply. Millions are terrified, scared to turn on their taps. Award winning photojournalist Mack Grayson returns from overseas war zones to save his crumbling marriage and becomes embroiled in the biggest story of his life. While covering a blazing inferno for his newspaper he fortuitously becomes the fire's star tv reporter. This good fortune launches him on a new career and in pursuit of those holding his city to ransom. But life's not easy for Mack, jealous enemies are trying to thwart his meteoric rise by smearing his reputation and accusing him of murder. It's now a race against time as he tries to clear his name while pursuing the terrorists and presenting informative and entertaining TV updates. The final threat is for the water catchment to be bombed from the air with deadly Anthrax, thousands will die. Mack intervenes in a dramatic car chase, intercepting the plane, crippling it. It still manages to take off. Can he save the city and the lives of five million people? While this is a fictionalised account of how a city is held to ransom when its water utility is under attack from outside forces how far is it from reality. How protected is our planet's liquid gold? How easy is it to seize control of reservoirs and catchments, even poison them? Tap Dancers explores some real possibilities. In recent times the world has witnessed terrorist threats, cyber attacks on corporations, website seizures and ransom demands paralysing communities, cities, even countries. What's next? Water?NB: Tap Dancers is not just about doom laden scenarios its also a story of real life relationships at home and at work and how perseverance against the odds fosters happier outcomes, even love. With room for murder.

Political economy is the name given to an important division of the science of government. The object of government is, or ought to be, the happiness of men, united in society; it seeks the means of securing to them the highest degree of felicity compatible with their nature, and at the same time of allowing the greatest possible number of individuals to partake in that felicity. But man is a complex bring; he experiences moral and physical wants; therefore his happiness consists in his moral and physical condition. The moral happiness of man, so far as it depends on his government, is intimately connected with the improvement of that government; it forms the object of civil policy, which ought to diffuse the happy influence of liberty, knowledge, virtue, and hope, over all classes of the community. Civil policy should point out the means of giving to nations a constitution, the liberty of which may elevate the souls of the citizens; an education which may form their hearts to virtue and open their minds to knowledge; a religion which may present to them the hopes of another life, to compensate for the sufferings of this. It should seek not what suits one man or one class of men, but what may impart most happiness by imparting most worth to all the men living under its laws.
