Seller's Description
About this product
Product Information
In
Britain and the United States a very strange sect has seized power.
They believe that we can all reach financial paradise, if only certain
sacrifices are made. There must be deregulation, there must be
privatization, and markets must be left unmolested, the better to
perform their magic. Democratic governments, unions and professionals
will all have to accept that there is no alternative. Meanwhile job
security, affordable houses and decent public services must wither away
in the white heat of financial engineering. A new class has been
presiding over this wonderland - the New Olympians. Since the late
forties they have been planning their next move in mountaintop meetings
that would make Ian Fleming blanch. Now private jets take them where
they want to go as they tell the world the good news. But, in the wake
of the Northern Rock collapse and the credit crunch, good news is in
short supply. In this hilarious and shocking expose Elliott and Atkinson
reveal the dogma that has brought us to the brink of disaster, and show
us how to escape from the coils of faith-based thinking. The New
Olympians have already done huge damage on both sides of the
Atlantic.Miners, farmers and industrial workers have so far suffered
most. But as market forces bear down on health, education and the
professions, the middle classes are starting to feel the squeeze.
Markets are not magic. Debt is not freedom. The Gods have failed. It is
time to live without them.
Note: You may see few stains or mark on it. Apart from that is good to enjoy.
