Интересный и информативный взгляд на деятельность ФРС и её влияние на экономику США. Важно учесть, что книга написана под сильным влиянием либертарианских взглядов Рон Пола.

I can't say that this was a poorly written book, I just don't see the recommendations as being the practical answer to our broken educational system.

Paul strongly supports home schooling, which really isn't practical for many people. I think further on-line courses will find the way into school use, but part of his book is a suggestion that we obtain the upcoming curriculum he's developing. Some of his points are interesting, but I don't see anything coming from his suggestions.

If you can trust the pre-election polls, Ron Paul doesn't have the support to become the nominee for President in the 2012 election. Nonetheless, this is a good book to read to gain an understanding of the policies and beliefs of one of the declared candidates. You can make up your own mind about supporting him or not, but at least you'll have a good basis for your decision after reading this book. To me, that was one of the main aspects of the book. The sections are short and to the point, not necessarily in enough depth to swing you over to his perspective, but detailed enough to get to know the candidate and his beliefs. In that respect, the book serves its purpose, and is good from that perspective.… (plus d'informations)

Congressman Paul is very critical of current monetary policy under the Fed, and makes many powerful points to support his views. He makes it hard to find fault with many of these views, and offers reasons why the Fed should be abolished. However while he made convincing points as to why the current system hurts us, I felt the book lacked compensating detail as to what the alternative financial system would look like, and how it would operate.
