Pigs at the Trough

A provocative and blistering look at corporate greed in America and the corporate crooks who have bilked the public out of trillions of dollars, magically evaporating pensions and underminding our core values and democracy.

In this New York Times bestseller, nationally syndicated columnist and political commentator Arianna Huffington presents a powerful indictment of the corporate and political culture that brought the economy of the 90s to its knees. Never known to mince words, Huffington paints a devastating portrait of how and why the worst and the greediest are running American business, government, and democratic ideals into the ground.

Are CEOs like Ken Lay of Enron and Dennis Kozlowski of Tyco just a few bad apples? Backing up her outrage with research and facts, Huffington shows that they represent just the tip of the iceberg--callous, avaricious corporate leaders who are walking away with millions. The price? The jobs, pensions, and security of thousands of Americans across the country and the erosion of basic values of truth, justice, and support of the common good.
