How the Other Half Banks

Exclusion, Exploitation, and the Threat to Democracy

Beschreibung

The United States has two separate banking systems - one serving the well-to-do and another exploiting everyone else. Deserted by banks and lacking credit, many people are forced to wander through a Wild West of payday lenders and check-cashing services thanks to the effects of deregulation in the 1970s that continue today, Mehrsa Baradaran shows.
