New York Times bestselling journalist John Stossel shows how the expansion of government control is destructive for American society.
Politicians-and we voters-can dream of guaranteed incomes or green energy. But the mature response to cries of "Yes, we can!" should be "No, we can't"-not when "we" means government. There is nothing that government can do that we cannot do better as free individuals. -John Stossel in No, They Can't
John Stossel debunks the most revered of society's sacred cows in this spirited New York Times bestseller: our belief that government can solve our problems. Stossel insists that we discard the myth of the "perfect" government-left or right-and retrain our brain to rethink our lives as independent individuals in light of such topics as
HEALTH CARE
JOB CREATION * GUN CONTROL
PUBLIC EDUCATION * ENERGY
MINIMUM-WAGE LAWS * CLIMATE CHANGE
THE NATIONAL DEBT * POLITICAL CORRECTNESS
THE ASSAULT ON FOOD . . . and much more!
