Only the Rich Can Play

How Washington Works in the New Gilded Age
Summary:

It examines the policy's implementation, its beneficiaries, and the question of whether it truly serves the impoverished communities it was designed to help or primarily enriches wealthy investors.

Key points:

1. Opportunity Zones and Tax Breaks: The book discusses how the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act's Opportunity Zones aimed to help poor areas but often benefited the rich instead, who used tax breaks for investments.
