The Glass Rainbow, by James Lee Burke [View all]

I'm re-reading this book. It was published in 2008.
It gives some insight as to what Big Ag, Big Oil / Gas have done to our political system and our environment.
It also gives some insight into the social structure of the haves and have more's. (paraphrasing) "The system has shaved the dice in favor of the well to do. Anyone who doesn't understand that, deserves whatever they get".
It's a novel with a very good story about the power of money and politics and serial murder.
I have been reading Mr. Burke for the last 15 years. I have yet to read a book of his I didn't like.
Remember this was written in 2008 and in one of the dialogs his friend is called "you people", and takes offense to it.
Also paraphrasing, "You are not going to change the system by being polite".

If you have read it, I would appreciate your comments, and/or insights.
