Written by a weekly columnist with over 50 years of experience in businesses large and small, not to mention some forays into politics and government, Rescuing Capitalism from Corporatism: Greed and the American Corporate Culture is a hard-hitting, no-nonsense look at how todays corporate culture has come to dominate free market competition. From the Enron scandal to the "dishonest casino" of the stock market to the modern-day oxymoron of "business ethics", symptoms of out-of-control corporations are becoming more and more frequent, and it's the ordinary taxpayer who suffers. Rescuing Capitalism from Corporatism examines what went wrong, what can be done about it, and how to limit corporate power while resuscitating capitalist principles that form the underpinning of a healthy economy. A valuable, insightful book, highly recommended for its words of warning about changes that must be made before corporations form a stranglehold on democracy as surely as capitalism.
