Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Interesting take on the so-called "upper middle class" which essentially postulates that the "9.9%" are the real drivers of inequality in this country. There's not a convincing argument made in the book for that position. The author takes issue with the grind/hustle class that maximizes career and education while also taking issue with people wanting to live in nice neighborhoods with good schools (gasp!!). The book actually uses meritocracy as a pejorative but doesn't come right out and say that we should have equality of outcome, regardless of personal investments made. Not a lot of verifiable stats to back up the claims made and overall it ends up sounding like something from a 2021 social sciences class (i.e. if you're successful, you're the problem and you're essentially holding unsucessfull people back with your disgusting success). I wouldn't waste the time on it. Nothing new here in these tired old arguments. yawn...
