I felt chapters 1-3 were tone deaf and made little sense when you consider that a large portion of the housing crisis is because large companies and rich individuals sit on property as tax sinks. I listened to this as an audiobook and I can only assume that chapters 1-3 were narrated by one person and the rest of the book was narrated by the other author. The book became much easier to listen to at chapter 4.
Chapters 4 and on were much better. I found the argument there much clearer, concise, and backed up with more effective examples.
Overall I was disappointed by this read. I guess I was expecting something with actual possible solutions other than “deregulate and remove red tape” when a bunch of problems we have in today's economy were the result of deregulation and allowing corporations large amounts and power and funds to lobby.
