Fine condition black boards with silver spine lettering contained in a fine condition non price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. Includes Author Dedication; Acknowledgments; Preface; Appendix; Notes and Index. Illustrated with graphs and charts. "Larry Elder on The Ten Things You Can't Say In America: THERE IS NO HEALTH-CARE CRISIS: "The normal laws of supply and demand don't work in health care, precisely because government has intruded, regulated, mandated, dictated.distorting incentives all along the way." BLACKS ARE MORE RACIST THAN WHITES: "Many blacks simply despise whites. They assume white bigotry and hostility toward blacks, and feel - against all evidence - that 'white racism' remains an intense and formidable obstacle. What nonsense." REPUBLICANS VERSUS DEMOCRATES - MAYBE A DIME'S WORTH OF DIFFERENCE: "The difference between a Republican and a libertarian is massive. The difference between a Democrat and a libertarian, gargantuan. Libertarians believe Americans are smart enough, wise enough, mature enough, capable enough to manage their own affairs to the fullest extent possible." THE MEDIA BIAS - IT'S REAL, IT'S WIDESPREAD, IT'S DESTUCTIVE: "What is news? In the end, news is what news-gatherers say it is.[Can] the media, unlike other human beings.turn on and off its emotions, prejudices, and ideological biases? I think it's more likely that their worldview - it takes a village - frequently becomes part of the story." - from the rear outer jacket. "The Ten Things You Can't Say in America is one of the few books that delivers more than it promises. People like Elder.are needed to blow the whistle on what is really happening." - Thomas Sowell, Rose and Milton Friedman Senior Fellow, The Hoover Institution, Standord University. "Is the federal government too intrusive? Should Americans practice self-help or hold their hats for handouts? Does this country have a race problem or are we all held hostage to a "victicrat" mentality? Do you believe in media bias? Larry Elder is a firebrand libertarian who tells truths this nation's public fugures are afraid to address. He turns conventional "wisdom" on its head and backs up his commonsense philosophy with cold, hard facts many ignore. Elder has been igniting listeners on The Larry Elder Show on KABC in Los Angeles for five years, bravely shouting out his ideas about smaller government, why he thinks the health-care "crisis" is a lie, and why drugs aren't this nation's biggest problem but illegitimacy is. What he has to say about education, the glass ceiling, and race will surprise and inspire you. In The Ten Things You Can't Say in America, Larry Elder punctures pretension, toppples sacred cows, and puts us all on notice that the status quo needs to be shaken up. You'll agree with him passionately or debate him vigorously - but you've never heard a fresher, clearer voice on the issues that really matter today." - from the inner front jacket flap.…

Descrizione dello Store
Vero Beach Books is an antiquarian bookseller with a constantly updated inventory of rare out-of-print books, signed books, children's books, plus a large inventory of ephemeral items such as major U.S. city newspapers going back 100 years and more, golden and silver age fine condition comic books (soon to be added), and many other ephemeral items as well as much more recent popular volumes. We have been in business for 25 years, originally known as Emerson Books (named after one of our owner's favorite authors, to wit, Ralph Waldo Emerson) located back then in Westport, Connecticut. That said, we are here to serve you, to offer you fine quality items that are conservatively described so that you will always be pleasantly surprised and delighted with your purchase. Twenty-five years in the bookselling business has borne out our stellar service oriented reputation; the only difference is that now we are located in the almost always sunny and warm climate of Vero Beach, Florida. Again, we are here to serve you and, as was the case when we were previously known on ABEBooks.com as Emerson Books, we will continue to offer our very popular 100% free search service for those hard to find books rare and out of print books. Oftentimes we are also able to obtain these rare finds at very good discounts to our customers' so it is always worth contacting us in such cases!
