''David Cay Johnston: "The Fine Print: How Big Companies Use 'Plain English' to Rob You Blind"

From Democracy Now ''In part two of our interview with David Cay Johnston, we discuss his new book, The Fine Print: How Big Companies Use 'Plain English' to Rob You Blind. Johnston writes, "No other modern country gives corporations the unfettered power found in America to gouge cus­tomers, shortchange workers, and erect barriers to fair play. A big reason is that so little of the news ... addresses the private, government-approved mechanisms by which price gouging is employed to redistribute income upward.''......................................... http://www.democracynow.org/blog/2012/9/19/david_cay_johnston_the_fine_print_how_big_companies_use_plain_english_to_rob_you_blind
