Golden Weakness

Platinum Failures

By: Dennis Kreger

Narrated by: Colin Campbell

What if the system isn't broken—but working exactly as designed?

From Wall Street bailouts to billion-dollar opioid settlements, Golden Weakness: Platinum Failures is a sharp, satirical exposé on how the rich and powerful fail upward—while the rest of us foot the bill. With biting wit and fearless commentary, Dennis D. Kreger reveals how weakness, when backed by wealth and influence, becomes a strategy—not a setback.

This isn’t a conspiracy theory. It’s a guided tour through the halls of power, where corporate titans dodge consequences, politicians rewrite the rules, and failure becomes a golden parachute.

Drawing from real events, Kreger dissects the absurdity behind:

The Supreme Court’s rebranding of corporate money as free speech

Big Pharma’s transformation of addiction into a marketing plan

Amazon’s high-tech war on unionsBoeing’s race to the bottom in the name of shareholder value

Golden Weakness: Platinum Failures is for anyone who’s ever asked, “How did they get away with that? ”—and wants the brutal, hilarious answer. If you're tired of watching billionaires fail upward while the rest of us struggle downward, this book will confirm your suspicions—and sharpen your sense of justice.
