"Sanders breaks down the unprecedented crises we face today in Trump's America, as Trump undermines democracy at every turn-and how we can effectively fight back"--

Oligarchy is a system in which a small number of extremely wealthy individuals control the economic, political, and media life of a nation. It is a system in which ordinary people have very little power to determine the future of their country. If you're an American, it is the system in which you're living. That must change. In the wealthiest nation on earth we must build a political movement that creates a government that represents all Americans, not just a handful of billionaires.

In this political commentary, Bernie Sanders outlines his perspective on the growing influence of wealth and power in American society. Through a series of concise chapters, he argues that the United States functions as an oligarchy, where a small group of billionaires hold disproportionate control over economic and political systems. Sanders critiques campaign finance practices, economic inequality, and the erosion of democratic institutions, particularly under the Trump administration. The book also presents a call to civic engagement and grassroots activism, emphasizing the role of ordinary citizens in shaping a more equitable and democratic future.
