Historia
When you drop your Diet Coke can or yesterday’s newspaper in the recycling bin, where does it go? Probably halfway around the world, to people and places that clean up what you don’t want and turn it into something you can’t wait to buy. In Junkyard Planet, Adam Minter - veteran journalist and son of an American junkyard owner - travels deep into a vast, often hidden, 500-billion-dollar industry that’s transforming our economy and environment.

I was in the business and I had it all wrong.
Revisado: 12-07-22
This book was very well researched and documented. I have been scrapping for decades as a customer and for a short while as a primary first level buyer at the neighborhood level. The whole system is much different than I thought. It seams that when we are told we are “DUMPING” it can be the most efficient best use of an item we are done with but still has useful value.

Historia
America’s Bitter Pill is Steven Brill’s acclaimed book on how the Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare, was written, how it is being implemented, and, most important, how it is changing—and failing to change—the rampant abuses in the healthcare industry. It’s a fly-on-the-wall account of the titanic fight to pass a 961-page law aimed at fixing America’s largest, most dysfunctional industry. It’s a penetrating chronicle of how the profiteering that Brill first identified in his trailblazing Time magazine cover story continues, despite Obamacare.

Why health care in the United States doesn’t work.
Revisado: 06-21-22
This well written and extensively researched book shines a bright light on the extent of the GREED in our prescription drug prices in this country. A massive redistribution of wealth and the reinforcement of the have’s verses the have nots is in very clear focus.
