"Here's a book that truly deserves those overused adjectives 'timely' and 'important.' It enables us to grasp and analyze the root causes of the catastrophic financial collapse of so many state and local governments as well as the seemingly sudden explosion of federal spending and the unprecedented peace-time penetration of federal power into our now beleaguered free enterprise economy. The economic crisis provided the pretext for Uncle Sam's neo-socialist power grab and laid bare the appalling weakness of much of our local government finance." --
Steve Forbes in the Foreword to
Shakedown

"The mainstream media is not interested in exposing the powerful machinations of public sector unions and social service advocacy groups, and their increasingly strong grip on politics. Why? For that you have to turn to writers like Steve Malanga and books like
Shakedown." --
Andrew Breitbart

"While the federal fiscal mess has had lots of attention, Americans face even more danger from runaway spending and improvident pension promises by state and local governments. Steven Malanga provides the grisly details in
Shakedown: The Continuing Conspiracy Against the American Taxpayer. He shows how public sector unions and government-financed "community organizers" are wreaking ruin on our private sector economy." --
