Reviews
"Brilliantly illuminating, both of the reality of oligarchy in our past and our present, and the imminent danger of oligarchy morphing into tyranny. On almost every page, I learned things that I should have known." --Daniel Ellsberg "With his awesome command of history and politics, Thom Hartmann presents a terrifying, captivating, and meticulously documented analysis of the treachery by which the ruthlessly deranged gained the loyalty of the desperate using money's power to corrupt. An urgent and essential read for those who seek a world that works for all." --David C. Korten, author of Change the Story, Change the Future "Thom Hartmann's must-read new book is equally frightening and inspiring. It offers both a dire warning about the threat posed to our nation by the growing power of oligarchs and a prescription on how to save our nation from it." --Dean Obeidallah, host of The Dean Obeidallah Show , SiriusXM Radio "Thom Hartmann has written a chilling account of how far our nation has strayed from democracy and is slowly embracing oligarchy. His focus on possible remedies, however, is the chief virtue of this fine book." --Dan Sisson, author of The American Revolution of 1800
