No, They Can't : Why Government Fails-But Individuals Succeed by John Stossel...

Description: 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 • DEFENSE SPENDING JOB CREATION • GUN CONTROL PUBLIC EDUCATION • ENERGY MINIMUM-WAGE LAWS • CLIMATE CHANGE THE NATIONAL DEBT • POLITICAL CORRECTNESS THE ASSAULT ON FOOD . . . and much more! Editorial ReviewsReview"Excellent..."No They Can't "shed[s] light on how nonsensical government...is way beyond what our constitution allows." --Sarah Palin "I love "No They Can't". This book sends a message that people need to read."--Senator Mike Lee "As an introduction to a way of looking at the world, "No, They Can't" is superb. In about 300 highly readable pages, Mr. Stossel whips through countless topics, explaining for each why libertarians think the government does more harm than good." --"The Washington Times" "One of the nation's most recognized advocates of free-markets and individualism, Stossel argues that we have to become reality-based skeptics and embrace facts rather than feel-good rhetoric and politically popular policies that simply don't work."--David Harsanyi, "Human Events" "Is there anything for a reader already on the capitalist side to learn from yet another one of these books? Yes there is." --Future of Capitalism About the AuthorNew York Times bestselling author John Stossel hosts his own one-hour weekly Fox Business Network show, Stossel, and a series of one-hour specials on Fox News.
