Based on input from others, I expected NOT to like this book, but that wasn't the case. I can't say everything Stossel talked about was new and earthshaking, or that I bought into everything he said, but there was more than enough I did agree with. For example, I'm not a bottled water drinker, so when he says that tap water is every bit as good, if not better, than bottled water, it's no news to me. And I believe the Country is lawsuit crazy, so when he talks about how medical liability cases like some John Edwards is so proud to have won actually have negative consequences for the rest of society, in terms of new product development, driving good doctors out of the profession, or increasing health costs unnecessarily, I'm pretty much in agreement. He just goes over many other examples, many of which you will agree with, others you may not, but it's mostly common sense and makes for good discussion around the dinner table.… (mehr)

Great standard Stossel tract on a litany of government attempts at solving real world problems and screwing everything up worse.

Refined arguments these are not but he does make some good points. Most of it would work a lot better shouted than in book form. I'm not American so I have no idea who John Stossel but I imagine he's well known because of the way he talks about himself (a lot) and the general level of smugness. If you "discover" the DNA or land on the moon you get to be smug all you want, just being smug as a character trait is a bit off-putting.
