Hello I am Lo Sontag. I am from LA now live in NY Metro where I am a fellow at The New School.

Typically I explore & writes about the US political economy with a focus on inequality, racism, urbanism and the climate crisis using heterodox methods.

Picture so you know I am not a bot.

Studies says people without jobs are sad, so the solution is guaranteed labor to make them happy. That is the thesis of guaranteed labor in the US. In the US which totally does not have a history of forced labor and some of the worst working conditions in the over developed world I can’t see that going wrong. I can’t see that impacting bargaining or forcing historically excluded group to an even more narrow lane of labor choices.

Oh you will deal with the US racism problem later…yeah OK.
