About this title

Synopsis

The theme of this radical and entertaining book is the harm government power allows some people - whether well-meaning or corrupt or self-seeking -- to inflict on others who are only trying peacefully to get on with their lives. Whether it is legislatures enriching themselves by sponsoring fraud in the era of the robber barons, city councils legislating cheap housing for their middle-class supporters by pushing rent control, unions using the power of government to stifle competition and maintain their privileges, or government maintenance of a public education system which has clearly failed, government power is the direct root of many of our problems. With incisive analysis and many striking examples, the author debunks politics and government power and offers a hopeful outline of a world both free and peaceful.
