Customer Review: Even a weak ideology as Marxist Collectivism Doesn't Deserve Such a Weak Defender as Klein. This book is filled with Economic fallacies and sophisms. All the old and dated Marxist ideological nonsense is presented here woven as a web of "facts" that presents the "evils" of liberal capitalism as... more info
Customer Review: Mr. Phillips hardly needs another glowing review, but his analysis will make you want to pull your money out of whatever U.S.-based investment it is in now, and stick it in the mattress (Don't!

Now he's looking at $200 and the mainstream media oil and finance pundits are slowly catching up with him. He is one of a number of writers who are warning that we are now in for an... more info
Customer Review: Gosselin's "High Wire" asserts that over the past quarter-century the "ownership society" is becoming the "on-your-own society," contrary to the thinking behind the Mayflower Compact that united everyone for the common good. Insurance is Gosselin's biggest target, and anecdotal evidence... more info
