Government Gone Wild: Exposing the Truth Behind the Headlines
About this ebook
In this collection of columns, venerated journalist John Stossel (Stossel TV, ABC’s “20/20”) dissects the ways government harms Americans more than it purports to help them. Overreaching bureaucracy threatens to creep into Americans’ personal lives more each day. Issues that are personal to Americans—education, health care, free speech and so on—are being politicized and sold out for profit. Politicians are risking individual liberty by lording over the decisions that Americans ought to make themselves.
Stossel’s extensive reporting proves the best way forward is to give more power back to the people.
