What is Welfare for the Rich: How Your Tax Dollars End up in Millionaires' Pockets--And What You Can Do about It about?
In todays ultra-polarized and highly partisan political environment, Welfare for the Rich is one of the rare books written to appeal to engaged and open-minded citizens from across the political spectrum. Welfare for the Rich is the first book to describe and analyze the many ways that federal and state governments provide handoutssubsidies, grants, tax credits, loan guarantees, price supports, and many other payoutsto millionaires, billionaires, and the companies they own and run. Many journalists, scholars, and activists have focused on one or more of these dysfunctional programs. A few of the most egregious examples have even become famous. But Welfare for the Rich is the first attempt to paint a comprehensive, easily accessible picture of a system largely designed by the richest Americansthrough lobbyists, lawyers, political action committees, special interest groups, and other powerful influencerswith the specific goal of making sure the government keeps wealth and power flowing from the many to the few.
