Thieves in High Places   (book)

Thieves in High Places: They've Stolen Our Country and It's Time to Take It Back
Thieves in High Places: They've Stolen Our Country and It's Time to Take It Back

Satire is great because it makes people laugh. Most of the time, when people laugh, they're laughing because they're happy. But when reading recent populist satire, the laugh generated is bitter and from disbelief evaporating. Most people aren't crooks. Most people play fair. This book isn't about most people. Jim Hightower's raucus "Don't mess with Texas style" is sure to amuse and inform.
