Winners Take All: The Elite Charade of Changing the World by Anand Giridharadas

4.0

The book opens with the main point in the first chapter and always returns to it. Each time there is more perspective, and the examples and commentary build well on each other over time. I would recommend reading at least the first five chapters, as it contains perhaps the best diagnosis of the current problems facing the US. If you've ever wondered whether you should just take a high money job and then donate a bunch later, this is a book for you. If you're trying to make the world better through your work (particularly entrepreneurs, techies, politics, people working with vulnerable people), this book is for you. No more turning a blind eye to bad deeds because someone donated some money.
