Lady_Visenya reviewed Jacked by Nomi Prins
Review of 'Jacked' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
Nomi Prins delivered another jam packed book, and this time, it was way easier to read!
Compared to her previous book "Other People's Money", it is understandable, clear, and direct. This book is also a lot shorter, and has a much more impactful message. It does start out a bit dry, but as the book continued I felt more and more invested.
She beautifully describes the importance of having a government that actually looks out for the people. How meaningful it is when the people who make this country the what it is are taken care of by the very government that serves them.
Her message really resonated with me, and the way she brought these interviews together to describe the wider issue was really grounding.
It brings these large country wide issues down to the individual person. Showing the disconnect between the government and its people.
I'd definitely recommend …

I'd definitely recommend this book if you want to learn the effect the government has on its people through policies good or bad, and how to address the problems with thr bad policies.
This book may be written I'm 2006, but it still seems eerily relevant to know this history for us today.
