Synopsis

Did you know that the corporate world is deliberately bleeding you dry?

The corporate soul is faster, stronger, and sneakier than any government or regulator. It aims to plunge you deeper and deeper into debt until you become no more than a hamster on a wheel, endlessly scurrying to try to pay your way out. Meanwhile, you are manipulated into buying more and more . . .

Tired of being a modern slave of the production line?

The first step is to recognize corporate brainwashing for what it is: an insidious, consumerist force that is not subject to principles of morality, ethics, or compassion. Digital Power to the People is your guide to breaking the slavery-to-debt cycle. It exposes the insidious workings of consumerist forces and provides antidotes for you to utilize in your day to day life.

Wake up and tune in to the power you hold in your wallet!

Choose to be part of a change! This booklet will show you how you can make that change by altering the way that money flows in your life and in the world. Each time you pull out your credit card, or choose not to pull it out, you can do more to change the world than does your vote on Election Day! Open your eyes and say “no more!” to corporate manipulation!

Review

This was an interesting spin on how we are all affected by items/products and the companies that market them to us and how they play on our emotions and desires so that we in turn purchase their products, whether we need them or not. The author made it seem as if all corporations were bad, and while the corporations are out to make a profit and satisfy the shareholders, I don’t know that i believe that all companies are inherently bad or that they operate without morals or ethics. Yes there are many companies that do, but not all.

I liked the little bit of history in regards to the first companies and how they operated. Since I am not familiar with that part of history I did find it intriguing.

I think the main point to take from this book is to not watch commercials or if you “think” you need a product, wait before purchasing. You may find out you don’t need it after all.

We give this 4 paws up.
