Sobre IBD

Trust in government is at an all-time low. Inequality has never been greater. From healthcare to housing and privacy, from education to democracy and transportation, the systems meant to serve the people are failing-and we the people feel powerless to intervene.In Hijacked, Alan Cohen provides a diagnosis to elucidate America’ s shift from a nation 'of, by, and for the people' to one dominated by corporate interests, financial elites, and entrenched oligarchies. Through vivid case studies-from the corporatization of medicine to the consolidation and monopolization of finance, agriculture, the media, housing, politics, etc. - Cohen exposes the mechanisms that have hollowed out our democracy while prioritizing profit over citizens’ well-being.But diagnosis is only the first step. Cohen outlines a path to recovery: a new, transparent, and decentralized political movement capable of restoring equality, opportunity, and the practical problem-solving spirit envisioned by the Founding Fathers. Hijacked is both a wake-up call and a roadmap for citizens ready to reclaim their country.
