From the CBS 8 Troy Newsroom-- FOX Network Business Host John Stossel made a stop today at Troy University.

Stossel spoke to students and community members about free-market economics and his new book: "No, They Can't: Why Government Fails, but Individuals Succeed."

He says the book tackles a range of issues including why he says government programs and laws are not always in the best interest of the individual.

"Politicians say we can solve your problems, and I wrote this book to say, 'No they can't,'" Stossel says. "But the individuals perform miracles that governments can't."

Troy is one of the 20 cities on Stossel's book tour.
