"Schweizer names guilty parties . . . He exposes powerful figures in politics, law firms, and corporations." -- Forbes Washington is no longer about lawmaking, it's about moneymaking Conventional wisdom holds that Washington is broken because outside special interests bribe politicians. The reverse is true: politicians have developed a new set of brass-knuckle legislative tactics designed to extort wealthy industries and donors into forking over big donations -- cash that lawmakers often funnel into the pockets of their friends and family. Inside this best-selling bombshell of a book, Schweizer reveals the exorbitant secret "fees" each political party charges politicians for top committee assignments; how fourteen members of Congress bagged hundreds of thousands of dollars using a little-known self-loan loophole; how politicians use PACs to bankroll lavish lifestyles; and much more. Washington's extortion racket has gone unreported -- until now.Binding Type: Paperback

Stylish and Solid, but Mostly Paying for the Aesthetic
Style: desk drawer with pen holder
Product: Upergo Walnut Desk Tray and Pen Holder
Used for: 7 months
Key Features:
– Attractive walnut wood design
– Solid construction with a premium feel
– Helps organize pens and desk accessories neatly
Ratings:
Quality:
The quality feels very solid overall. The wood and finish look great, and it has held up well over months of use without any noticeable wear or issues.
Rating: 5/5
Performance:
It does exactly what it’s supposed to do. It keeps the desk organized, holds pens and small items well, and adds a clean, professional look to the setup.
Rating: 5/5
Value:
Honestly, it’s pretty pricey for what it is. A lot of the cost feels like it’s going toward the aesthetics and walnut finish rather than functionality.
Rating: 3/5
Pros:
– Looks very clean and premium
– Solid and sturdy build
– Great for desk organization
– Adds a nice aesthetic touch to a setup
Cons:
– Expensive for a fairly simple product
Summary:
The Upergo Walnut Desk Tray and Pen Holder is a well-made and attractive desk accessory that does a great job organizing small items while making a setup look more polished. The build quality is solid and the walnut finish looks great, but the price is definitely on the high side for what is ultimately a simple organizer. If aesthetics matter to you, it’s a nice addition, but you’re definitely paying extra for the look.
Overall Rating: 4/5**

Good materials and design
Style: desk drawer with pen holder
Don’t write reviews often. Not a fake/paid elicited review. I just got this and am pleased with the build quality, materials (wood and metal), and design.
