This book should come with a warning - it will make you really angry at how big corporations get over on us on a daily basis. ( ) I ultimately found this book disappointing. Having very much enjoyed listening to Johnston on various shows I bought this book in the hopes of seeing deeper analyses of the financial problems in the United States than were offered here. Each chapter follows roughly the same pattern; the reader is introduced to a person (or person) in order to give a human face to the financial/regulatory issue to be focused on. The harm / unfairness done is demonstrated and Johnston turns to the next issue in the next chapter. This continues from chapter to chapter until the end of the book in which a almost all of the fixes suggested are normative rather than practically substantive. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
