Sinopsis

In P. J. O’Rourke’s classic best-seller Eat The Rich, he takes on an elusive subject, but one that is dear to us all—wealth. What is it? How do you get it? Or, as P.J. says, “Why do some places prosper and thrive, while others just suck?” Starting on Wall Street. P.J. takes the reader on a scary, hilarious, and enlightening world tour to investigate funny economics. Having seen “good capitalism” on Wall Street, he looks at “bad capitalism” in Albania, views “good socialism” in Sweden, and endures “bad socialism” in Cuba. Head reeling, he decides to tackle that Econ 101 course he avoided in college. The result is the world’s only astute, comprehensive, and concise presentation of the basic principles of economics that can make you laugh, on purpose. P.J.’s conclusion in a nutshell: the free market is ugly and stupid, like going to the mall; the unfree market is just as ugly and just as stupid, except there’s nothing in the mall and if you don’t go there they shoot you.
