Hard to believe that the central theme of our book the updated America: What Went Wrong? – the need for more active federal government to attack income inequality -- would be adopted so soon and so vigorously by the Biden Administration. nytimes.com/2021/05/28/bus…

The consequences of heaping tax benefits on the rich for 40 years (America: What Went Wrong? The Crisis Deepens) is dramatically shown in ProPublica’s brilliant expose. The tax code is the greatest driver of income inequality in America. bit.ly/3ctOmcQ

This is just to say: today is my last day at the The Philadelphia Inquirer. Next week I'm starting a new career in media strategy/comms. I'm excited, but it's still sinking in! I've spent 20 years in newspapers, almost 14 of those here at my hometown paper. I'm so lucky. I'm so grateful.

86% of Black students take out federal student loans to pay for college — that's nearly 20 percentage points higher than white students. With a stroke of his pen, President Donald J. Trump can #CancelStudentDebt and help close the racial wealth gap.

Ten years ago today, a Theranos employee went to Reddit for help. He didn't name the company, but it was all basically right there in the post. I wonder what secrets are being shared by anonymous accounts today that we will only understand in 2032. reddit.com/r/jobs/comment…
