Greedy corporate interests have been lying to us for centuries. Heres an illustrated, entertaining road map for navigating through their hypocrisy and deception
From praising the health benefits of cigarettes to moralizing on the character-building qualities of child labor, rich corporate overlords have gone to astonishing, often morally indefensible lengths to defend their profits. Since the dawn of capitalism, theyve told the same lies over and over to explain why their bottom line is always more important than the greater good: You say you want to raise the federal minimum wage? Why, youll only make things worse for the very people you want to help! Should we hold polluters accountable for the toxins theyre dumping in our air and water? No, the free market will save us! Can we raise taxes on the rich to pay for universal healthcare? Of course notthat will kill jobs! Affordable childcare? Socialism! Its always the same tired threats and finger-pointing, in a concentrated campaign to keep wealth and power in the hands of the wealthy and powerful.
Corporate Bullsh*t will help you identify this pernicious propaganda for the wealthiest 1 percent, and teach you how to fight back. Structured around some of the most egregious statements ever made by the rich and powerful, the book identifies six categories of falsehoods that repeatedly thwart progress on issues including civil rights, wealth inequality, climate change, voting rights, gun responsibility, and more. With amazing illustrations and a sharp sense of humor, Corporate Bullsh*t teaches readers how to never get conned, bamboozled, or ripped off ever again.
