Yeah this was a very good discussion! Definitely interested in hearing your thoughts once you do read it to see if it answered the questions you had or not

Yep! And the book itself is like 220 pages, it certainly is portraying itself more as a framework to solutions more than the solution to problems itself. Definitely isn't enough pages to solve all the world's problems lol

That's partially me reading into it, though. But the authors have issues with money in politics, and just because that isn't explicitly said in the book doesn't mean they think it's a good thing.

As for money in politics, I think the book is designed to work within the current system. There are obvious problems that need fixing, but we should be able to walk and chew gum here by finding ways to help people now to build the political will and power to pass rules to get money out of politics.

Yeah this almost makes me think he didn't read (or finish) the book, because the entire last chapter is about the success of Operation Warp Speed and how specifically the government can incentivize companies to do things to help people without getting ripped off the way Musk did stuff.

I do think this is where I'd recommend reading the book and going through many of the examples he lists with an open mind. It seems like corporate Dems and progressives alike have been at fault here, and so much of it is at the local level.

by well-intentioned liberals have been part of the reasoning for why so much money gets stuck in the hands of the wealthiest and allows them to maintain political power.

Yeah, I just don't agree with the implication here that these authors are here to make money to defend oligarchs. Both of them have been and continue to be advocates for higher taxes for the wealthy and strong state power to help the poor. A lot of the book is how policies aimed at helping the poor

Wouldn't it be better to get them into real housing that, let's say, isn't built using local union labor or may not have perfect ventilation systems than leave them out on the streets for years?

The argument was basically that the perfect was getting in the way of the good, and the outcome of all these self-imposed regulations on the government itself were forcing the homeless to stay in tents under an underpass for years longer than they needed to.

I think they view it as a dial, where you can turn it too far to be so focused on the process that ends no longer matter.

One example was an affordable housing building that had to meet all these crazy criteria to be built and took years and years to come together.

That said, yeah I didn't love the answer and I think he could have explained better and been more thorough.

If I'm remembering the context on that correctly, it was in response to the contention that private equity is responsible for housing prices going up.

I believe the point was that if you're ONLY viewing problems through the lens of corporations being the problem, then you'll miss other factors.
