Greg Palast: The War Between the Billionaires

By Rob Kall

I spend almost an hour talking with Greg about his newest book, Billionaires and Ballot Bandits. And we got into something very interesting-- that there's a war between two kinds of billionaires-- The vampire squids and the Vultures. And yes, this affects the elections and the nine ways they are going to be stolen and corrupted.
