2021., Berrett-Koehler Publishers, Inc. Call No: NEW 320.973 H333h Edition: First edition. Availability:0 of 1 At Your Library Summary Note: The coronavirus pandemic has laid bare how American oligarchs have gutted governmental institutions and looted our nation's economy. The United States was born in a war against British oligarchs, and we've battled between cycles of democracy and homegrown oligarchy ever since. Thom Hartmann traces the history of this conflict from America's founding to the Civil War against the feudal Confederacy to President Franklin Roosevelt's clash with "economic royalists" who fought to sabotage the New Deal. America has restrained our oligarchs before, but they are now more powerful than ever and today represent a very real threat to our republic. Hartmann lays out practical measures to build a movement that will return control of America to We the People.
