Bank of America purchased over a thousand banks with stock inflated by those very purchases. As its Ponzi-like scheme unraveled, it loaded the banks with so much get-rich risk they collapsed. AIG hit upon the same stock inflation-by-purchase scheme. It inflated its stock by purchasing other companies. So AIG grew into a trillion-dollar hodgepodge of purchased corporations. As its scheme, too, unraveled, it gambled frantically with their assets. It likewise stripped them into bankrupt skeletons. The Acquisitors: Too Titanic to Let Sink dissects the history of the scheme to answer the question no one dares ask: "How did the 'too bigs-to-fail' grow too big?" The scheme is not new: It gave us meltdowns long before we ever heard of Bank of America, AIG, and other acquisitors that gave us the continuing Great Meltdown of 2008. That history shows we'd have no banks bloated too big to fail--grotesquely too big even to take bankruptcy--had not the Justice Department torpedoed Congress's design to halt that inflation-by-purchase scheme for engineering giant takeovers. As a lawyer working on the design, the author investigated the scheme for Congress. He explains investigation documents showing that the scheme enables acquisitors to evade free competition and rely instead on bailout billions for salvation. The lesson from those documents: "Takeover empires purchased target companies with stock inflated by those very purchases. While the empires remain intact--exempted by giantism from disciplines of competition and rules of bankruptcy--meltdowns are bound to recur."

Self-styled physicist Dr. Abdul Abdan is an expert in flattery. He cons Chairman Bud Lightfoot of the powerful Federal Fuels Agency to rebuild the Hindenburg dirigible. Will it explode and take the Kentucky Derby with it? Live burial in the Alps, boomerang murder, spiraling descent over Kansas--tangle with a true tale of government deception.
