A fantastic book that shines a much needed light on common capitalist propaganda.

Free-market capitalist myths are perputuated by politicians and news outlets far too often. This book helps deconstruct some of them, starting with the basic concept that there is no such thing as a free market, to equality of opportunity not being fair. There’s so much to learn in this book and it’s explained incredibly.

The writer himself is a capitalist so you don’t have to worry about consuming anti-capitalist rhetoric. This is simply an economist being honest about the system that we live in; a rarity nowadays. If you live in a capitalist country you consume a huge amount of pro-capitalist propaganda, whether you’re aware of it or not. Reading this book helps explain some counterpoints to views that you may take for granted.

An insightful read that I’ll be referencing for years to come.
