I’ll keep it short but sweet: Matt Taibbi, author of the infamous Goldman Sachs – Vampire Squid article<\/a>, is out with a new book entitled Griftopia: Bubble Machines, Vampire Squids, and the Long Con That Is Breaking America <\/a><\/em>. As described, this book is “essential reading for anyone who wants to understand the labyrinthine inner workings of politics and finance in this country, and the profound consequences for us all.” It’s a must read for those interested in how and why the American government has been hijacked by Wall Street.<\/p>\n
