New, Updated! General Election Edition Mammonocracy - it's something we have quietly accepted over the past thirty years and it means 'the government of money, by money, for money'. It explains why the country now feels like a game of Monopoly where one or two players have all the property and the rest are gradually going bust. Mammonocracy - this is the book that defines Wealth Control: finance, politics and law. This is the book that defines a new middle class: Bureaucracy, Bean-counters and Bullshit. And what is left is a redefined working class: Wealth Generation. Oh yes, and the forgotten class: Dependants. Mammonocracy explains a divided society, but with one shared problem: we are so busy fulfilling the roles allocated to us by the Wealth Control project that we have no time left for the private projects that are our lives. 'Vivid and compelling'. Tony Benn. 'A wonderfully concise and caustic account of the current financial meltdown'. Big Issue in the North.
