内容简介
······

"Matt Taibbi's genius is in untangling complex stories and making us care about them by providing striking moral clarity and a genuine sense of outrage. He has become among the most read journalists in America, leading the dialogue with epic Rolling Stone pieces that offer an "almost startling reminder of the power of good writing" (Washington Post). In this new work, he once again takes readers into the biggest, most urgent story in America: a widening wealth gap that is not only reshaping our economic life, but changing our core sense of right and wrong. The wealthy 1% operate with near impunity, while everyone else finds their very existence the subject of massive law enforcement attention: from stop-and-frisk programs and the immigrant dragnet to invasive surveillance and the abuse of debtors. Driven by immersive reporting, this is a stunning look into the newest high-stakes divide in our country: between a lawless aristocracy of hyperwealth and the rest of us, living under the shadow of an incipient American police state"– Provided by publisher.

力荐!对Lehman Weekend记录跟其他书籍略不符。另外作者的观点我也不是完全同意。但还是相当赞的一本书。看完觉得美国真是没前途。

Racism has gone unspoken and hidden, but bureaucratised and automated.

lol there is no such a thing as a society..how could anyone envision such a thing called justice…

3.5 非虚构,跟学术研究 meritocracy traps 那本一起看。
