In his latest book, Saving Capitalism, Robert Reich reveals the cycles of power and influence that have created the new American oligarchy, shrunk the middle class, and driven the United States to the greatest income inequality and wealth disparity in 80 years. The book is an indictment of our economic status quo and a revelatory look at how our system really functions.
