Pity the Billionaire Author: Thomas Frank
ISBN: 9780099570271 Format: Paperback Number Of Pages: 230 Published: 4 October 2012 Country of Publication: GB Dimensions (cm): 19.8 x 12.8 x 1.7 Description: Economic meltdown usually brings calls for change - or it's supposed to. But when Thomas Frank set out to find these, all he heard were loud demands that the losers be hit harder and that the winners get more. We were told for decades that the market knows best, then had a once-in-a-lifetime crash. And now we see a popular uprising supporting free-market principles.
As Frank explains, until 2009 the man on the dole did not weep for the man lounging on his yacht. Pity the Billionaire takes us on a wild road-trip through the strange landscape of the American Right, the Tea Party and Glenn Beck, makes sense of a topsy-turvy world and shows how instead of complying with the new speed limit, conservative America has stamped hard on the accelerator.
It is essential reading for understanding how we all got to where we are, and how we might get out.
