About this ebook
Politicians, financiers and bureaucrats claim to believe in free competitive markets, yet they have built the most unfree market system ever created. In this Gilded Age, income is funnelled to the owners of property – financial, physical and intellectual – at the expense of society. Wages stagnate as labour markets are transformed by outsourcing, automation and the on-demand economy, generating more rental income while broadening the precariat.
Now fully updated with an introduction examining the systemic issues exposed by Brexit and Covid-19, The Corruption of Capitalism argues that rentier capitalism is fostering revolt and presents a new income distribution system that would achieve the extinction of the rentier while encouraging sustainable growth.

I started reading the introduction and I got the hunch this guy was Marxist. Kept reading and it defiantly reassured my hunch. Marxist is never the answer. I ask you if you believe in Marxism, right now donate all your possessions, and property to charity. Then you can start your life as a Marxist. Dont wait for government to help you live the life. You can start right now if you believe it's best. Give up all your property, your possessions and then build yourself up again. That's Marxism except instead of doing good and giving to charity they do evil and give to government, or people with enough to support themselves already. I spit on Karl Marx's grave for ever creating the ideology.
