What we are reading

The Best Democracy Money Can Buy, Greg Palast,
Robinson Palast promises the truth about globalisation, corporate cons, and high finance fraudsters, and he delivers. All the gang are here the dodgy politicians, crooked businessmen, shady religious, corrupt corporations, the arrogant imperialists and the vote riggers, all of them intent on damaging the lives of customers, voters, and poorer nations. Western freedoms are asserted by cornering and privatising water supplies, resisting regulatory authorities, undermining trade unions, and stuffing the pockets of US Senators, not all of whom are Republicans. An essential and chirpy read for cynics!
