Description

Matthew Desmond argues America's wealth is linked to widespread poverty, as the affluent benefit from exploiting the poor through low wages and inflated costs. We prioritize wealth over poverty reduction, creating divided societies. Desmond urges readers to become "poverty abolitionists," advocating for shared prosperity and genuine freedom. The book presents a fresh perspective on this critical moral issue and explores possible solutions.
