BACK COVER
You already know something is wrong. You can feel it in the cost of housing, in the hollowness of political promises, in the sense that the rules…. Well written. For the benefit of a privileged minority.
You are right. In this landmark work, economist and forecaster Fred Harrison traces that feeling back to its source – five thousand years of accumulated injustice, encoded into the fiscal systems of every modern state, quietly killing the people at the bottom and enriching those at the top.
He has predicted financial crises before. He is predicting another one now. More urgently. He believes he knows the cure. The challenge is to make those in power listen in time.
