Although political rhetoric and public perception continue to assume that the United States is the very definition of a free market economy, a different system entirely has in actuality come to prominence over the past half century. James Angresano examines the characteristics of this Corporate Welfare Economy, both from the theoretical point of view but also with key reference to the different sectors of the economy - trade, manufacturing, industry and defense among them.
