Filthy Lucre: Economics for People Who Hate Capitalism is a 2009 book by Canadian philosopher Joseph Heath. The book is organized around what Heath claims are twelve fallacies or myths associated with economics, six of which are common on the left, and six of which are common on the right. It considers ideas like that the government should get out of the way of markets; that competition and Adam Smith’s invisible hand improve efficiency; the 'psychopathic' nature of corporations; and the inevitability of capitalism's collapse.
