Summary: Almost everyone in America felt the effect of the latest financial crisis. From foreclosures to lay offs, many of us have tried to come up with a solution to our financial woes. The government tried to do it's part with a bailout, but the majority of Americans didn't think this was the right solution. As we look to our government for help, Dr. Woods offers a different opinion in his book, Rollback: Repealing Big Government Before the Coming Fiscal Collapse. He believes we are on the verge of a financial collapse unless we completely change our understanding of government. Dr. Woods is a New York Times-bestselling author. He graduated from Harvard and has a Ph.D. in history from Columbia University.
