Many journalists, scholars, and activists have focused on one or more of these dysfunctional programs. A few of the most egregious examples have even become famous. But Welfare for the Rich is the first attempt to paint a comprehensive, easily accessible picture of a system largely designed by the richest Americans—through lobbyists, lawyers, political action committees, special interest groups, and other powerful influencers—with the specific goal of making sure the government keeps wealth and power flowing from the many to the few."--Back cover. 650 0 Economic development|zUnited States. 650 0 Government lending|zUnited States. 650 0 Rich people|zUnited States. 700 1 Conyers, Lisa,|eauthor.
