It is the only book about how the return of Social Darwinism has metastasized into Financial Darwinism. And provides the information that Congress and Wall Street do not want Americans to have!

"Swindled" is a political, socio-economic, financial and philosophical treatise on the state of our dysfunctional society. It is a brutally candid expose of political self-interest and economic self-interest. And how our Republic, founded on the primary principle "of the people, by the people and for the people" (Lincoln's Gettysburg Address) has become a political system of the lobbyists, by the ultra rich and for the ultra rich and their special interests.

Schoenberger’s 1990 book, "Invest for Success, How to Avoid Getting Ripped Off by Real Estate Partnerships, the Stock Market and Diversification" became a critical success nationally. Barnes & Noble is carrying it, again, online and in stock. He has authored a number of articles in professional journals and mainstream publications.

A 1964 graduate of Miami University with a degree in English and Economics, Schoenberger has served in a variety of roles in the financial world: he was among the earliest financial planners; he owned his own broker-dealer NASD Member Firm specializing in private placements; he consulted on capital formation and served as a venture capital CEO leading a small business into and successfully out of Chapter 11; he presented testimony to Senate Finance for TRA 86 at the request of George Mitchell, has spoken before various professional groups and has taught his continuing education course for CPAs, Trust Officers and Trust Department Lawyers for many years.

Schoenberger has been successful in both the insurance and securities businesses for more than four decades, and has been a life-long student of economics and economic history as well as a political junkie dating from the day his father gave him an I Like Ike button. He is a poet-philosopher and pragmatic, rational idealist with a point of view encompassing human needs as well as economic realities. He believes the past will be eventually be acknowledged as prologue to provide the lessons to successfully transition from where we find ourselves today to a future that has appropriate concern for the public good. And he believes in the collective spirit of Americans, a spirit that has always found a way to transcend rancorous disagreement to form a stronger union.

From 45 years of personal experience, he understands why we cannot fix our continuing financial tragedy until it is recognized and acknowledged that Financial Darwinism is Born-again Social Darwinism and the survival of the richest ethic has been curbed by rebuilding the barriers against greed. And knows that the Keynesian pragmatic solutions which worked in the after-math of the Great Depression must be applied to solve economic problems that cannot be solved by monetary and fiscal policy.
