Pure Unadulterated Fun!
George Franklin takes a humorous look at the world of economic development with politicians, corporations and a cast of rogue characters all wallowing in the government trough in the name of capitalism and free enterprise. Incentives is a wickedly funny book filled with laugh out loud moments. It is an uproarious, comical story of the hypocrisy which permeates public policy today. Nothing is sacred and everybody and everything is fair game!
Blessed Be Crony Capitalism!
Incentives involves a collision of public policy and political greed carried out by two misfits from Tampa's Ybor City, a couple of wayward rednecks from Georgia, some rummies from the South Side of Chicago and others all clashing over the economic spoils available in the politically conservative enclave of S.W. Michigan. A hilarious, combustible combination of characters with entertaining plots and twists, Incentives will keep the reader laughing out loud at each new development.
If you are a fan of Carl Hiaasen or Christopher Buckley you will love Incentives!
