Ban Billionaires: Fascism Fix
by Esme Mees and Rita Shelby explores billionaire wealth-hoarding mental illness and the moral decay it breeds. Esme's incisive critique dismantles the myths of meritocracy and trickle-down economics, exposing billionaires not just as exploiters of labor and ecosystems, but as sociopaths-or even demons-whose insatiable greed has brought humanity to the brink. Rita's worker-inspired narratives weave together the stories of ordinary people crushed under the weight of corporate tyranny, offering a haunting yet hopeful look at resilience and opposition.
The book is illustrated with classic Mees and Eatms Productions black-and-white woodblock prints, evoking the stark crossroads between good and evil where humanity now stands. These visuals amplify the text's urgency, capturing the moral and ecological devastation wrought by billionaire hoarding.
