America, Inc is speculative fiction; but instead of the usual technology-speculation, it's organization-speculation. In the USA nowadays, corporations are people with free speech rights. This novel extrapolates: What if some folks formed a corporation to run for president of the USA? This sounds like the premise for some cyberpunk dystopia. As it happens, the USA's current political reality has sunk so low, dystopic-wise, that a corporate candidate is an improvement. This novel's a fun read so long as you concentrate on the novel and don't think too much about our actual situation.
