Description: The hidden history of the billionaires behind the rise of the radical right. Why is America living in an age of profound economic inequality" Why, despite the desperate need to address climate change, have even modest environmental efforts been defeated again and again? Why de hedge-fund billionaires pay a far lower tax rate than middle-class workers? The conventional answer is that a popular uprising against "big government" led to the ascendancy of a broad-based conservative movement. But as Jane Mayer shows in this powerful, meticulously reported history, a network of exceedingly wealthy people with extreme libertarian views bankrolled a systematic, step-by-step plan to fundamentally alter the American political system.
