★☆☆☆☆
Only got to Chapter 2 and I'm not inclined to continue
Right off the bat I didn't like this book that I was hoping to enjoy. I wanted substantive information and details, instead Perkins regurgitates things such as EHM and Jackals and "corpatocracy" with no facts. It is clear right away that he received no training in economics. Like others have said he comes off as egotistical, which I wouldn't mind if he had reason to be, he doesn't. When he made the statement that we invaded Afghanistan and Iraq because our EHM's and Jackals failed in those countries I just wanted to put the book down, it's just false information. Good thing I got this from the library, this book doesn't deserve a profit.
