Summary

'Bernie Sanders has changed US politics forever' Owen Jones

It's OK to be angry about capitalism。 It's OK to want something better。 Bernie Sanders takes on the 1% and speaks blunt truths about a system that is fuelled by uncontrolled greed, and rigged against ordinary people。 Where a handful of oligarchs have never had it so good, with more money than they could spend in a thousand lifetimes, and the vast majority struggle to survive。 Where a decent standard of living for all seems like an impossible dream。

How can we accept an economic order that allows three billionaires to control more wealth than the bottom half of our society? How can we accept a political system that allows the super-rich to buy elections and politicians? How can we accept an energy system that rewards the fossil fuel corporations causing the climate crisis? How can we let it happen any longer? We must demand fundamental economic and political change。 This is where the path forward begins。

It's OK To Be Angry About Capitalism presents a vision of what would be possible if the political revolution took place。 If we would finally recognize that economic rights are human rights, and work to create a society that provides them。 This isn't some utopian fantasy; this is democracy as we should know it。 Is it really too much to ask?

There often are not books that will both educate you and validate your feelings about the current state of affairs, but Senator Bernie Sanders’ new book does just that。 In “It’s Okay to be Angry About Capitalism”, Bernie breaks down piece by piece how our current form of capitalism has brought us into the country we live in today where less than 1% of our population owns more than the bottom 92% and CEO’s make 350 times more than their workers, where we live everyday that our economy is based on There often are not books that will both educate you and validate your feelings about the current state of affairs, but Senator Bernie Sanders’ new book does just that。 In “It’s Okay to be Angry About Capitalism”, Bernie breaks down piece by piece how our current form of capitalism has brought us into the country we live in today where less than 1% of our population owns more than the bottom 92% and CEO’s make 350 times more than their workers, where we live everyday that our economy is based on innovation and competition, but only a handful of corporations actually control the marketplace and stomp out competitors with ease。 From antiquated taxation and education systems to the monopolized media conglomerates controlling narratives to the long practiced distraction politics, Bernie weaves together every piece to explain how this tangled web has developed over the past century。I have always respected Bernie Sanders for a few key reasons。 He understands the need to invest in our young adults and the youth vote in politics and understands the power that they hold。 He is able to not only point out the issues that he sees but also present well thought out solutions to those problems。 He knows that there is no silver bullet to societal issues and that it won’t happen overnight, but the hard work that societal change demands must be done。Thank you Crown Publishing for the free advanced copy of this book。 Even if you agree or disagree with Sanders, I could not recommend it enough。 I finished it in one day because it was that compelling。Get @berniesanders’ new book from @randomhouse and @crownpublishing on February 21, 2023。 #angryaboutcapitalism 。。。more
