We need to look no further than the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities (CBPP) to corroborate the findings of Giridharadas. He writes, “We must decide whether, in the name of ascendant values such as efficiency and scale, we are willing to allow democratic purpose to be usurped by private actors who often genuinely aspire to improve things but, first things first, seek to protect themselves.”
Indeed, he suggests that they may be the biggest benefactors of the divide.Ĭiting example after example, Giridharadas’s book details how the 1% have cleverly crafted a system that continues to benefit them rather than society on the whole. Giridharadas meticulously breaks down how the plutocratic class are perhaps the biggest part of the problem.
