Throw Them All Out: How Politicians and Their Friends Get Rich Off Insider Stock Tips, Land Deals, and Cronyism That Would Send the Rest of Us to Prison

Schweizer Peter, 2012

How is it that politicians often enter office with relatively modest assets, yet then, as investors, regularly beat the market and sometimes beat the most rapacious hedge funds?
