i was completely unaware of almost everything this book spelled out so clearly for me. its amazing to think that poor government decisions are the root of all the economic problems in america right now...
strongly recommend this read to anyone. i really enjoyed it.

if you have heard of conrad kain, or even if you hadn't ( like me ) this book follows you through this fabled pioneer mountain climber from the the poor starving beginning of his life to later years over seas becoming a much acclaimed climber... this book is awesome.. and i'm really glad i read it...
