I recommend Douglas Rushkoff's book "life inc, How Corporatism Conquered the World and How We Can Take It Back":
Centralized money has been the means for sucking profit out of local economies since about 1300. Rising income inequality has been an 800 year process. I thought I knew how the world worked, but Rushkoff changed my world view.
