Interesting. I was wondering why there was so much discussion of people’s engagement with church and family and implying that this was somehow part of a solution.

Also the flippant disregard of universal basic income as a solution for generational poverty.

The starting premise that these NEETs have been a steadily rising proportion of the population since the 60s regardless of whatever economic calamity is never tied to any of his conclusions, either. I guess it’s implicit that the increasing faithlessness and decay of the American family is the cause?

What a frustrating read - I kind of want that 20 minutes of my life back
