TWILIGHT OF THE ELITES

Do you ever get the feeling that the game is completely rigged?  You don't really want to say anything because, first of all, what if it isn't rigged and you're just not smart enough to figure out how to play.  Or, what if the game is actually fair, but you're nuts!  Well, the good news is, you're not nuts.  The bad news is, the game is actually rigged.

MSNBC's young, firebrand commentator, Chris Hayes, has written an exceptional book about American politics, education, religion, and economics.  "Twilight of the Elites - the end of Meritocracy" paints a clear picture of our past, our present, and our potential future.    Hayes is an excellent writer with a gift for making his vision clear to the reader.  When you finish you'll have a better understanding of how the recession started, why the banks were bailed out and the middle class was left dangling in the breeze, and what we might be able to do about it.  Give it a read, you'll be glad you did.
