America is corrupted, and everybody knows it. Vested interests have
bent government powers to serve themselves, not the citizens, with
dizzying results -- egregious Supreme Court rulings, revolving
doors and cozy deals between the state and the private sector, and
forty years of financial meltdowns. In this blistering book, Sarah
Chayes shows that today's corruption -- even the venality of the
Trump administration -- is part of global history, going back to
the invention of money itself. We're not dealing with 'bad apples'
lining individual pockets, but the widespread standard practice of
sophisticated networks spanning political and national boundaries.
But we can change this, individually, collectively and politically.
Searching and unflinching, 'Everybody Knows' exposes a rigged
system that strangles democracy, calling on readers everywhere to
challenge it.
