I work at the intersection of urban mobility, land use, and climate.
I occasionally post about Brazil, music, and football (the one played with feet).
Views are my own.

What's worse is that these puff pieces didn't even engage with the book on its own terms, which is that poor people and their "culture of poverty" are to blame for their lot in life. How did this guy manage to claim the populist mantle having written a book oozing in contempt for the poor?

The entire premise of the vice president’s book was applying discredited “culture of poverty” scholarship (previously used to pathologize African Americans) to explain the failings of poor white people. They even turned it into a Netflix movie!

Since 2023, SMUD has given me rebates covering half the cost of an induction stove, paid the full cost of a heat pump water heater, and covered about 60% of the cost to upgrade my panel to make my house EV ready. I also pay literally 1/9 the rate per kWh that PG&E customers pay. It’s amazing.
