Taking On The Corporate Government In An Age Of Surrender is a groundbreaking book that exposes the machinations of corporations and empowers citizens to take back control. Drawing on extensive research and interviews with whistleblowers, activists, and legal experts, the book reveals how corporations have:

Captured regulatory agencies and corrupted the political process
Exploited loopholes to avoid paying taxes and avoid accountability
Used their wealth and power to silence dissent and suppress competition

The result is a system that is rigged in favor of corporations and against the public interest. Taking On The Corporate Government In An Age Of Surrender shows how this corporate capture has led to a decline in our democracy, our economy, and our environment.

But the book is not all doom and gloom. It also provides a roadmap for how we can take back control from corporations and create a more just and democratic society. The book outlines a series of concrete steps that citizens can take to:

Support independent media and journalism
Hold elected officials accountable
Participate in grassroots activism
Support candidates who are committed to reforming the corporate government

Taking On The Corporate Government In An Age Of Surrender is a must-read for anyone who is concerned about the future of our democracy. It is a powerful indictment of corporate power and a call to arms for citizens who want to take back control.
