Kanye West and Donald Trump: two figures, titans of their own industries. One a cultural figure, one political: both supreme reflections of the silent transformation America has undergone in the past 20 years. The change in culture demonstrated by Kanye's work is an indicator of a larger culture shift in America: loss of prosperity, economic struggle, and most of all the final establishment of America's new ruling class, the corporate elite. All reflected in a President and his cabinet of billionaires, alongside Kanye and the trajectory of his work. Late-stage capitalism has silently established itself, yet most Americans probably don't know what it is. In this insightful book, Sam Russell explains in everyday language the evolution of American capitalism, as this history is key to understanding the present. He then shows how current events are not random or an unsolvable puzzle, but the signs of capitalism's death throes. Read it to understand the implications for your future.
