Ferdinand Lundberg (1905–1995)

A book to be read after you have been entertained by Shaws "The Intelligent Woman's Guide to Capitalism and Socialism". Lundberg makes a powerful argument for the severe curtailing of private fortunes as he is a clear student of the follies of self interest. On the other hand, one may read it as a framework for dark fantasies... Lundberg clearly reveals the network that in the old days effectively ran the USA, and now today the structure that rules us worldwide. Chilling and convincing.

Lundberg 1905-1995, a prolific journalist/economist focussed on American Elites. The wildest of the three scholars (G William Domfoff, and currently,Michael Patrick Allen) who have documented the fact that American egalitarianism and political pluralism are myths. This book received NO REVIEWS in the major newspapers, but became a bestseller in 1968. Cleveland Amory calls it the definitive damnation of Bad Business.
