Riassunto

Poignant accounts of political corruption. Carefully calculated consumer deceit at the hands of greedy executives. Startling misuse of taxpayer money. These are just some of the things that swept the nation after the housing bubble popped and the Great Recession gripped the country. These murky depths of America's economy became harder and harder to traverse, and at times it seems impossible that we will be able to clean up the mess. Now, in his comprehensive and insightful book Wildfire, Robert Srote explains the links between all these events in layman's terms and highlights the ways in which America might begin digging itself out of this hole. From corrupt executives and greasy politicians to the revolving door syndrome, where government officials are promised and awarded high paying corporate contracts when their work in Congress has ended, no issue is ignored. Readers will learn how businesses deemed Too Big to Fail hoodwinked taxpayers' twice; initially to ignite The Great Recession and once more to prolong it. Wildfire aims to stage an intervention to cure America's addiction to financial excess by offering specific common sense solutions for America's detoxification.
