Inequality Kills
Print Version August 3rd, 2005
There was an interesting book review in last weekend’s Guardian about the greater toxic effect of social inequality rather than poverty per se. Hat tip: Eric

Hi. I read the book review – interesting. As someone who lives below the “poverty line”, I agree that the inability to control one’s environment has negative psychological and physiological consequences. But …
… the reviewer seems to be mainly talking about the poor who actually aren’t so poor – The poor have what their grandparents would think unimaginable luxuries – TVs, telephones and washing machines. – the true poor who are watching their children starve probably aren’t concentrating on their social standing.
