Publisher Description
Citizens across the country are fed up with the politicians in Washington telling us how to live our lives and then sticking us with the bill. But what can we do? Actually, we can just say no.
As New York Times bestselling author Thomas E. Woods, Jr., explains, "nullification" allows states to reject unconstitutional federal laws. For many tea partiers nationwide, nullification is rapidly becoming the only way to stop an overreaching government drunk on power. From privacy to immigration to national health care, Woods shows how this growing and popular movement is sweeping across America and empowering states to take action against President Obama's socialist policies and big-government agenda.

"Great to have the argument for nullification so cogently presented, as well as the historical documents defending it as the second part of the volume. Very well synthesized by Dr. Woods; stayed well focused on topic, but also presented a few insights into libertarian natural rights and non-aggression philosophy."
— David (4 out of 5 stars)
Nullification Listener Reviews
-
" Very timely book on the principles by which states can nullify unconstitutional acts by the federal government, and why the Supreme Court should not be the arbiter of last resort. Includes text of the important documents expressing these principles or explaining them to the opposition. "

" this 2 star review is mainly due to the fact I listened to this with audible. I don't think audible + non-fiction is a good idea. "

" This book was first-rate, and outlines about the only effective resistance strategy we have left. "
— Douglas, 12/28/2013 -
" Good stuff. A bit dry, if I didn't love the subject the book would be unbearable. It will require a second listen to absorb it all. "
— J., 12/15/2013 -
" Great read, very important information, but prepare yourself for an incredibly dry,dry read! "
— Naomi, 10/6/2013 -
" A little wordy and sometimes redundant but the points Woods makes are very well researched and the evidence is exemplary "

" Interesting, but too hopefully imho in this age of growing state power. "

" A great book by Tom Woods. He has done a huge service to all Americans. I learn some new history by reading this book. Highly recommended! "
— Jeff, 12/16/2012 -
" Dr. Woods makes a strong historical case for the duty of state legislatures to nullify federal laws which they feel are unconstitutional. He also shows the Federal government derives its power from the states. "
— Wil, 12/11/2012 -
" I really enjoyed this book and there are a number of quotes from the various sources cited that I need to go back and copy down. Fantastic book and one with wich everyone should be familiar. And it is surprisingly engaging; not dry at all (in my opinion). "
— Ethan, 8/16/2012 -
" Nullification is probably our last hope in arresting Federal tyranny. This book is a must read. "
— Dean, 8/9/2012 -
" Great resource! The original sources documenting the history of nullification which makes up the second half of the book make this book a gem that is well worth the read. "
— Jared, 11/28/2011 -
" Good information, but not the most exciting of subject. "
— David, 11/28/2010 -
" recommended reading. "
