I'm both learning a lot- and also we (the consumers) are already aware of this at this point. I'm hoping the later half of the book will discuss what power the consumers have to fight back!

I really like this book. It's really validating to my intuition honestly, plus it gives me hope.

My library hold finally came through!

Read up to Chapter 2 with Grayson!
