The Forgotten War Between Democracy and Monopoly

America once thrived by actively fighting corporate monopolies. Then we forgot how. Matt Stoller's "Goliath" reveals a hidden history that explains our current economic crisis-how concentrated corporate power has undermined democracy and hollowed out the middle class. The story begins with Wright Patman, the last true populist in Congress, whose 1975 ousting by "Watergate Babies" marked the final act in a century-long struggle between democracy and monopoly power. Today, with two phone makers, four giant banks, four major airlines, and a handful of tech giants controlling our digital lives, this forgotten history couldn't be more relevant. What's remarkable is how this book has earned praise across the political spectrum-from Elizabeth Warren to Tucker Carlson-reflecting growing bipartisan concern about unchecked corporate power.
