A book that has become only more relevant, as American politics is ever-more examined and, well, exposed. With more politicians saying the quiet parts aloud, it is difficult for anyone to think that the American political system isn't broken. Engaging and well-written. Recommended.

Author George R Tyler was interviewed about his book 'Billionaire Democracy' for KGNU Denver/Boulder.
This is an excellent book on the current oligarchic situation in the US.
It is highly recommended.
Listen to the interview, link below, and you will see for yourself that Tyler not only gives a very persuasive argument, but tells listeners what they can do to remedy the situation.

Billionaire Democracy is filled with statistics, footnotes, and research quotes that back up George R. Tyler's points of views. I found the book to primarily discuss the demise of the Republican party and its agenda, but it also does at a fewer stance the Democratic Party as well. I wish this book had more opinion and less quotes and statistics driving his points across. The book to me came across more like a collegiate graduate paper and less of a nonfiction novel - in my opinion.

George R. Tyler has plenty of views that come across in Billionaire Democracy that helps us understand what in the world is going on in our political turmoil in Washington DC. Tyler also compares large corporations and how they are spewing American low wages in Europe along with fueling their profits for executives and Washington Politicians to keep control of the government as a silent partner. Great quick read to remind you we need CHANGE and FAST in American Democracy!
