Meltdown

A Free-Market Look at Why the Stock Market Collapsed, the Economy Tanked, and Government Bailouts Will Make Things Worse

By Thomas E. Woods Jr.

Jason’s quick thought: This book explains what the mainstream media and politicians will not – how did the United States of America get into the financial meltdown that started in 2008. It explains very well the unfortunate problems that are created when the public sector (government) interferes with the private sector (capitalism). I encourage students to read this because they will need to learn to pay attention to politics in order to protect themselves. Many college graduates got hurt by the financial meltdown, but others were able to prosper because they saw the signs and were able to prepare for it.
