Meldrich, Jr. "wmeldrich" (Kirkland, WA USA) - Review: Cornered: The New Monopoly Capitalism and the Economics of Destruction Every American needs to read this book. Especially the tea party types. The massive consolidation of corporate America has led to virtually all of our recent problems. Among them: rapid offshoring, loss of product safety, the squeezing of small business and the middle class, the corruption of government and especially congress, the too big to fail syndrome, the routine corporate corruption, etc. These problems will continue until we strongly reassert our anti-trust laws that Reagan decided to ignore and every president since has refused to enforce including Obama. If we don't fix this, plan on the US assuming third world status soon. ==== --- The Quiet Coup Simon Johnson http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2009/05/the-quiet-coup/7364/ Simon Johnson on Washington Journal Part 1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UabQ5vtPncc -- Thomas Frank: Cornered: "A manifesto for our time" A New Age of Monopolies More targets for antibailout anger. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704548604575097883275530628.html === Lendman: Getting money out of politics is key - the reality that big money dictates policy, pre-selects candidates, predetermines outcomes, gets the best democracy it can buy, assures a de facto one-party state, and a dominant media trumpeting the best of all possible worlds that's, in fact, corrupted, broken, despotic, and ruinous by benefiting the rich against the rest. http://baltimorechronicle.com/2010/030410Lendman.shtml === Cornered / Facebook http://tinyurl.com/y9qer2c Book Alert!
