The message is right on and supported by lots of data. The only drawback for me was a tone of lecturing the reader in the last chapters.

Common sense, All too un-common in economic treaties It re-phrases the question of Big or small government to good or bad government. I thought the book was thought provoking insightful and a great commentary on the interplay between government and the private sector I believe that any citizen will find this book a useful perspective of our responsibility as citizens and as a member of the larger human family. In a current media clash of FOX vs. MSNBC and perspective confirmation, I truly believe that both sides of the left vs. right (or in our country case the middle vs. right of right) will find this book thought provoking and useful

Which is exactly why the "this book is trash" reviewer is afraid you will read it. Knowledge is in fact power.
