5.0 out of 5 stars Fine intro to Libertarianism, February 14, 2007
By 
Casper Melick (New York, NY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Walton Street Tycoons (Paperback)
This is not exactly a primer of the principles of Libertarianism, but it's a good introduction. The author presents examples of excessive governmental authority (and shows how "democracy" is much over-rated) in such a clear way that the reader will find it easy to say, "He's right." Once you've read this book you'll want to know more about how government works, and what Freedom and Liberty are really about.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hilarious, politically incorrect intro to libertarianism, March 7, 2007
This review is from: The Walton Street Tycoons (Paperback)
What a funny, well-written primer on basic libertarian concepts. Mark Hoffmann and his pals are politically incorrect, sharp-witted entrepreneurs who will have you rolling on the floor laughing as they outwit the adult buffoons who run the town of Walton. The book is a great intro to the basic tenets of libertarian thought - as well as a wake-up call to the dangers, corruption and immoral power of the state. I recommend this novel for adults and teens alike. This book has it all for the young libertarian - entrepreneurship, disdain for authority, fishing, guns, politically incorrect humor, and some good make-out scenes. Give it a read

5.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining Novel for Adults and Teens, March 7, 2007
This review is from: The Walton Street Tycoons (Paperback)
This novel is a great read from start to finish. Although many like this book for its libertarian views, I loved it simply for its fiction. It is a really fun novel, entertaining for adults and teens alike. Be careful as you read, however... you and your teenagers may begin to re-think your political views. Enjoy it with you pre-teen to early teenager, and open up some great dinner table discussions.
