📚 Want to read: Abundance by Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson.

…a once-in-a-generation, paradigm-shifting call to renew a politics of plenty, face up to the failures of liberal governance, and abandon the chosen scarcities that have deformed American life.

I’ve had a thought circulating in the morass of my brain for a long while that so much of the scarcity we feel, especially that surrounding the basics of what is needed to live a subjectively good and effective life, is avoidable.

We could have ‘enough’. Rather, our struggles are a product of our societal structures, or sometimes even a deliberate policy, usually designed to further the ends of others.

Hopefully this book will help sense-check and formalise my currently fairly vibe based take on the subject.
