War Council #23 "Dog Eat Dog" (Part 8)

"Poverty isn’t a line. It’s a tight knot of social maladies. It is connected to every social problem we care about-crime, health, education, housing-and its persistence in American life means that millions of families are denied safety and security and dignity in one of the richest nations in the history of the world."

War Council #22 "F**k Empathy" (Final)

"I’ve learned that being against empathy is like being against kittens—a view considered so outlandish that it can’t be serious. It’s certainly a position that’s easy to misunderstand. So I’ll be clear from the start: I am not against morality, compassion, kindness, love, being a good neighbor, being a mensch, and doing the right thing. Actually, I’m writing this book because I’m for all those things."
