Publisher's Note
"Examines the growth of the political lobby and its implications for American politics, detailing the growing influence of the federal government in every facet of life, the organized special interest groups and their role in shaping policy and funding elections, and how lobbyists have undermined government efforts in such critical areas as health care, global warming, and Social Security. 60,000 first printing."
Industry reviews
"Kaiser's account dwells less on blatant corruption than on what is perfectly, depressingly legal. Lobbyists...come across as simple bagmen, conveying cash" (01/26/2009) '[A] very strong book. Kaiser does a great job of laying out the current situation and how we got here, but thankfully does not waste too much time on solutions. There's already a library's worth of material put out every year on possible reforms of the system.... However, there is a dearth of solidly reported examinations of how we got here and who some of the biggest unnamed beneficiaries of the political system are. Kaiser brilliantly succeeds in illuminating the little-known ways that American policy is made, and how well-placed and well-connected people are able to profit from the holes in the American system." (01/18/2009) "...Kaiser's narrative skills are formidable. He can make a suspenseful story out of a twenty-five or thirty-year-old dustup over academic earmarks involving John Danforth, a solemn former Missouri senator." (04/09/2009)
