Produktbeschreibung
A detailed discussion of the key political, economic, and tax issues facing the United States In today's turbulent economy, more and more people are growing concerned about their financial future, and looking for answers that make sense. While the government attempts to "fix" the problems created by the credit crunch and subprime crisis, too much intervention is never a good thing. In The Conscience of a Libertarian, Libertarian Party Vice Presidential nominee Wayne Root presents his case for a dramatic overhaul of governmental programs and policies that are essential for the continued survival of the American Dream. Focusing on the need to shrink the size of government, Root proposes the reduction of government spending, lowering entitlements, reducing bureaucracy, increasing market freedom, and reducing the tax burden on all Americans, among many ideas. Root also shares his thoughts on what he believes the government should do to improve our situation, including: upgrade the education system on the state level; foster investment to provide workers with more capital; reduce inflation and the cost of capital; lower the income tax rate to allow people to save the money needed to invest in stocks, real estate, and business start-ups; and encourage reasonable risk and entrepreneurship. Focusing in part on his home state of Nevada, Root examines what happens when his principles are applied to state government and reveals how the American Dream can survive this current economic crisis. Wayne Allyn Root (Henderson, NV) is the 2008 Libertarian Party Vice Presidential nominee. Founder and Chairman of a successful small business, he is a self-made businessman as well as an author and television producer. Root has been a guest on several network television talk shows on CNBC, Fox News Channel, and MSNBC.

Rezensionen
"In your heart, you know he's right. Channeling Barry Goldwater for a modern audience, Root does a great job of adapting his mentor's classic for 21st century America. My guess is that the principles of Goldwater, shepherded by Root, will be a benchmark for reform in this age of political and economic crisis." -- Peter Schiff, President, Euro Pacific Capital, Author of Best-Seller "Crash Proof"

"Root takes no prisoners, leaves no doubt how the disaster came to be; Root names-names but blames both Democrat and Republican administrations for over-spending, inflating the size and reach of government and creating a welfare state that is a form of slavery even as it continues to bleed taxpayers. Root has solutions. To me, he's the only candidate who's articulate, powerful in presentation, and RIGHT. He presents his views with vigor and clarity on every occasion. He comes across great because he speaks truth from the heart, of America, to America, for America." -- Dr. John Hospers, First Libertarian United States Presidential Candidate; Professor Emeritus of Philosophy, University of Southern California

"Wayne Allyn Root (WAR) means business. In 'The Conscience of a Libertarian', he is declaring WAR on big government, big spending, big taxes, big unions, big business, arrogant career politicians, lawyers, lobbyists, and the media elite. What a refreshing change to read the words and ideas of a small businessman, homeschool dad, son of a butcher, and citizen statesman. This book is a must read for libertarians, conservatives, disillusioned Republicans, independents, and anyone who wants to cut the size and scope of government dramatically, and return power to individuals. Instead of just criticisms, Wayne provides common-sense solutions for limited government, economic and personal freedom, and protecting our Constitution. I can feel our Founding Fathers looking down and smiling." -- Judge Andrew P. Napolitano, Fox News Channel, Senior Judicial Analyst; Host of "Brian and the Judge" on FOX News Radio and "FreedomWatch" on FOXNews.com…mehr
