"America's foremost opponent of inequality brilliantly shows how the 1 percent rigged the rules, looted the country, and got the ninety-nine percent to pay for it."—Juliet Schor, author of Born to Buy

Over recent decades, we've seen a radical redistribution of wealth upward to a tiny fraction of the population. In this book, activist Chuck Collins explains how it happened and marshals wide-ranging data to show exactly what the ninety-nine to one percent divide means in the real world and the damage it causes to individuals, businesses, and the earth.

Most important, he answers the burning question: What can be done about it? He offers a common-sense guide to bringing about a society that works for everyone: the hundred percent. This is a struggle that can be won. After all, the odds are ninety-nine to one in our favor.

"This riveting tale of America as two cities will stay with you for years to come and—watch out! It may rouse you to action on the solutions that Collins spells out with perfect precision." —Charles Derber, author of The Pursuit of Attention
