Extortion - How Politicians Extract Your Money, Buy Votes, and Line Their Own Pockets by Peter Schweizer
The author presents evidence that politicians have developed a new set of brass-knuckle legislative tactics designed to extort wealthy industries and donors into forking over big donations. Until now, Washington's extortion racket has gone unreported, but thanks to an extraordinary effort by the author and the investigative research staff of the Government Accountability Institute, we now know the racketeering methods and the players who profit from them.
