Our Poverty Myth and the Roots of Inequality
The essay argues poverty reflects birth, racism, and policy, not individual failings. It cites Adam Smith and Weber on work ethics, notes Rockefeller’s philanthropy alongside belief that the poor deserve their fate, and highlights how race, housing, and lending discrimination trap low income families. It concludes poverty stems from systemic factors, costly living, and limited public aid.
