  “This is the most important, dynamic book on the cancers of monopoly by giant corporations written in our generation.”—from the foreword by Ralph Nader 
   
  American monopolies dominate, control, and consume most of the energy of our entire economic system; they function the same as cancer does in a body, and, like cancer, they weaken our systems while threatening to crash the entire body economic. American monopolies have also seized massive political power and use it to maintain their obscene profits and CEO salaries while crushing small competitors.  
   
  But Thom Hartmann, America's #1 progressive radio host, shows we've broken the control of behemoths like these before, and we can do it again.  
   
  Hartmann takes us from the birth of America as a revolt against monopoly (remember the Boston Tea Party?), to the largely successful efforts of both Presidents Theodore and Franklin Roosevelt and other like-minded leaders to restrain corporations' monopolistic urges, to the massive changes in the rules of business starting during the “Reagan Revolution” that have brought us to the cancer stage of capitalism.  
   
  He shows the damage monopolies have done to so many industries: agriculture, healthcare, the media, and more. Individuals have taken a hit as well: the average American family pays a $5,000 a year “monopoly tax” in the form of higher prices for everything from pharmaceuticals to airfare to household goods and food. But Hartmann also describes commonsense, historically rooted measures we can take—such as revitalizing antitrust regulation, taxing great wealth, and getting money out of politics—to pry control of our country from the tentacles of the monopolists.

  That’s the cry of a new generation of technology vendors. They have a new approach to enabling success for their customers. And they’re thriving as a result. 
  These vendors all have subscription pricing at the heart of their business. Each has learned that if customers don’t feel they’ve had success, recurring revenue doesn’t grow and may even decline.  
  What makes them different? They have absolute clarity about what the customer considers success to be. And they’ve built their business around enabling that success. They know it’s the outcomes for the customer that count. They’re all members of the Outcome Generation. 
  This book shows how to join the Outcome Generation. You’ll learn how to leverage true customer success at every stage of the customer lifecycle. For existing customers, you’ll learn how to engage customer executives at the start of the buying cycle—and often create a buying cycle. 
  You’ll learn how to increase new business (new logo) sales by selling outcomes. And exactly what type of outcome to sell. You’ll create greater emotional connections, differentiate from the competition and win more business. 
  You’ll also learn how to evolve Services and Support to focus on enabling true customer success, and how that’s producing great references. 
  And Marketing will have a whole new way of attracting attention, creating interest and engaging prospects. 
  Most vendors have evolved past solution-selling and its approaches to marketing, sales, services and support. The Outcome Generation shows how to align the whole business around a common theme—enabling outcomes the customers regard as success. And why that allows vendors to thrive!

  The Network - The Battle for the...

  The astonishing story of America's airwaves, the two friends-one a media mogul, the other a famous inventor-who made them available to us, and the government which figured out how to put a price on air. 
  This is the origin story of the airwaves-the foundational technology of the communications age-as told through the forty-year friendship of an entrepreneurial industrialist and a brilliant inventor. 
  David Sarnoff, the head of RCA and equal parts Steve Jobs, Jack Welch, and William Randolph Hearst, was the greatest supporter of his friend Edwin Armstrong, developer of the first amplifier, the modern radio transmitter, and FM radio. Sarnoff was convinced that Armstrong's inventions had the power to change the way societies communicated with each other forever. He would become a visionary captain of the media industry, even predicting the advent of the Internet. 
  In the mid-1930s, however, when Armstrong suspected Sarnoff of orchestrating a cadre of government officials to seize control of the FM airwaves, he committed suicide. Sarnoff had a very different view of who his friend's enemies were. 
  Many corrupt politicians and corporations saw in Armstrong's inventions the opportunity to commodify our most ubiquitous natural resource-the air. This early alliance between high tech and business set the precedent for countless legal and industrial battles over broadband and licensing bandwidth, many of which continue to influence policy and debate today.

  In today's economic and political climate, protecting yourself means asking the right questions. You can't ask the right questions if your mind's encumbered by what you think you may understand. Who's the man behind the curtain? What's this thing we call money? It's not what you think. We've burdened government with all our problems but do they have the capacity to solve them? Do we want them to? 
  What's the difference between freedom "of" and freedom "from" and why's it important? Why is this one of the most important questions you can ask? I'm putting out an APB for critical thinking skills. We need these skills at this important juncture in our nation's history. Is our political division a permanent condition? What's the one thing we all have in common? Information isn't lacking these days, which is why our ability to sift purposefully through it is critical. 
  Prepare to meet the future. It always arrives sooner than expected. Are you ready?

  There is a hidden agenda in Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos’s space exploration to colonize Mars and the Moon. The media portray them as Americans who are rekindling space exploration that was once dominated by the rivalry between the United States and the extinct Soviet Union. 
  Before you write off what I have just said, hear me out. For more than a decade, I’ve closely studied the lives of Bezos and Musk. I have watched as Jeff Bezos dominated online retailing, and Elon Musk building Tesla and SpaceX. As each spread their wings to critical industries, I began to notice a pattern that only leads to one conclusion, the hidden agenda each harbors. 
  On the surface, it appears each of them is interested in dominating space. However, when you study how they operate in every industry, you cannot help but conclude that there is more to their modus operandi. 
  If you would like to find out what this hidden agenda is, and how Musk and Bezos are dominating the industries they each operate in, then BEZOS vs. MUSK is a book you should read. 
  Here’s more of what you’ll learn in this book: 
  ●	Two dreams that Elon Musk has that’ll take him to the top of the air transportation industry. 
  ●	Discover two images in the conclusion that shows what Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos are planning when they’re done with their respective projects. 
  ●	What Jeff Bezos did to force NASA to freeze the Artemis program for a few months. 
  ●	An initiative that Elon Musk is undertaking to help increase the thinking power of human beings and why he’s doing it. 
  ●	Why Elon Musk and Amazon Web Services have funded OpenAI. 
  ●	A potent strategy that Amazon uses to dominate an industry it never operated in before. 
  And much much more! 
  If you want to find out the truth behind the rivalry of Bezos and Musk, get BEZOS vs. MUSK.
