Most people simply have no clue about how economics really work. For example, they think the economy is as capricious and as unpredictable as the weather. Not true. They believe that recessions and depressions do not happen for objective reasons. Not true. Hazlitt's genius lies in his ability to explain complex economic principles in layman's terms. Read this book not to become an economist, but simply to have a better grasp of how and why a market economy works. Then you might send a copy to your Senator or Congressman; chances are that he or she understands economics even less than you do.
