In these hard-hitting essays, left-wing journalist Tom Tortorich shines a harsh light on the underbelly of our global economy in his controversial and humorous exploration of our greed-driven Capitalist economy.
Tortorich takes aim at the ploys and strategies dreamed up by finance capitalists, including Wall Street, their most nefarious scheme of all, the ultimate weapon of mass destruction, which transfers wealth from rich to poor on an unprecedented scale.
Every new mutual fund, stock, derivative or credit default swap are all just another brick in the wall.
In 1984, George Orwell coined the term "Double Think," which means: "When the brainwashed masses think twice about a blatant lie, reinforced so often that it becomes the believed truth."
Tortorich uses the term "Capitalist Think" to describe how Wall Street Bankers have brainwashed us all into not only buying into their agenda .... but being active participants!
What can we do about it? How can we tear down this wall street?
These essays are not political in nature, yet the political implications of a country run by Capitalists is blatantly laid out in these easy-to-read essays.
