FLEECED!: HOW WE’VE BEEN BETRAYED BY THE POLITICIANS, BUREAUCRATS AND BANKERS - AND HOW MUCH THEY’VE COST US
Book ID/图书代码： 03275010B39507
English Summary/英文概要： Over the past decade, some GBP3 trillion - equivalent to GBP50,000 for every person in Britain - has been taken from us by the ruling elites. Half was wasted in a splurge of poorly-managed public spending in the ’boom’, while the other half evaporated in the ’bust’ - siphoned off by city bonuses, vaporised by a collapse in pension savings and extorted to bail out the banking sector. In their explosive new book, David Craig and Matthew Elliott trace where the money has gone and who has become richer as a result. They name and shame the ’guilty’: the incompetent bureaucrats that fail to deliver the services the taxpayer deserves; the multitude of ineffective regulators and watchdogs; the politicians that have betrayed our democracy and enriched themselves; and, the self-serving and arrogant city bankers. Moreover, they calculate the enormous debt that awaits the British taxpayer as a result of our rulers’ avarice and economic mismanagement. "Fleeced!" charts the greatest impoverishment and tax swindle of the public in British history.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 在过去的几十年，大约有3万亿英镑落入统治精英阶级的手中，相当于每个英国人要为此付出50，000英镑。这其中有一半金钱在经济繁盛期因政府开支管理不当而被浪费掉，而剩下的一半则在经济萧条期“蒸发”殆尽，例如用于发放所谓的市政奖金，退休抚恤金以及用于救济银行业。在这本爆炸性的新作中，大卫.克雷格与马修.艾略特追踪了金额的去向，以及哪些人因这笔钱而变得更加富有。他们点名道姓地进行批判，认为他们的行为简直可耻：官僚机构没能履行职责，愧对纳税人的信任；许多监管机构玩忽职守；政客们背叛了民主，侵占纳税人的财产；而那些银行家自私自利，傲慢无礼。此外，他们还计算出由于统治者的贪婪和经济管理不当而导致英国民众所担负的巨额财富。"Fleeced!"一书形象地刻画出了英国历史上最大的贫困景象和公共诈骗。(兼职翻译—XMM)
