About the Original Book:

Americans believe that they live under a democratic system that ensures they will prosper if they work hard. But if this is true, why are Americans working harder than ever yet their incomes have stagnated? Robert Reich argues that the nation’s system of government has been rigged to favor a small group of wealthy and powerful elites who dominate the nation’s economy and public policy. This hijacking of democracy has turned America from a democracy to an oligarchy. If the people are to save their country, they must unite and fight for the values that the nation’s founding fathers stood for.
