BADLANDS
- Phil: they don't get beyond the hallway of positivism either
- like until you understand
- that poverty itself
- is a category that is created by an assemblage of institutions
- state and non-state alike
- you actually can't understand the problems
- let alone solve them
- let alone say that "they can't be solved"
- because you don't know what they are
- so my solution
- find thomas friedman
- i'll help
- and we'll brainwash him
- force him to write at least 2 airport bestsellers
- explaining stuff
- to dummies in suits
