Out of all the books this podcast has covered, this one may be one of, if not the easiest to read and follow along. This doesn't mean the content is simple or easy to understand even, but Robert Reich, the author, is a phenomenal writer and he has the ability to make complex information easy to understand. This is important for the majority of people. He puts things in a way that allows for people to obtain an understanding, myself included. He explains why and how so much of our country's wealth continues to flow to the top of the economy and how this is detrimental and harmful to everyone else. He explains the "rigged game", the impediment of conservatives, how income inequality is distorting our democracy, and how we can take action and he of course offers some guidance and proposed solutions to the issues we face. This book is called Beyond Outrage and i'm sure that after reading it and obtaining an understanding of the grander scheme of things, you too will be outraged.
