The use of bureaucracy to funnel wealth from poor to rich also operates in the same way for private institutions such as banks. Graeber goes into this modern tendency towards bureaucratic rule in detail in his book "Utopia of Rules"
- kiliantics 7y agoI really don't understand what was so unpalatable to other users about this comment... The link I shared goes into the same details about Ferguson as the top comment and the notion that it is poorer people that bear the largest burden is also stated in the featured article. Is it the idea that these same issues also arise in the private sector that rubs people the wrong way?
