You get the impression that #poverty is made and continued by design in the #USA. And there is almost no incentive for the #billionaires to end poverty at all, although they could very easily by just stopping #taxfraud or collecting the taxes that are already due today. 🤯
#Money flows to the super #rich (which pay less #taxes!) instead to the people in need.
The #AmericanDream is an illusion.
What a shit country. What a shit system.

Listening to audiobook POVERTY, BY AMERICA (2023) - Matthew Desmond
#PovertyByAmerica #MatthewDesmond #Audiobook #Book #Books #Library #Libby #PublicLibrary #BarackObama #Obama
Interesting segment in this #YouTube #video by #Bloomberg with #author #MatthewDesmond on his #book, #PovertyByAmerica.
Matthew reiterates salient points regarding #poverty existing in the #US because, collectively, we want it to exist, and #capitalism creates and depends upon it for its existence.
His phrase "#ChicNihilism" reminds me of the "#RadicalChic" of the same kinds of people in the 60's; ultimately a disengagement of the privileged.
We can change #society.
I just finished listening to Poverty By America by Matthew Desmond.
A damning explanation of how I benefit from the deep poverty of my fellow man.
