I’m often surprised how long folks can go without understanding the real floor in living conditions a lot of Americans are faced with. I think it’s an empathy gap, but I don’t know how to fix it.
Maybe folks need to volunteer in shelters more often. Understand how much closer they are to poverty than they are to Bezos.
