If you didn’t read it, I wrote a major feature in City Journal on the struggles of working class Scott County, Indiana. It’s a deep dive into one of America’s challenged working class communities and its efforts to fight back against its problems.
I just recorded a podcast on the subject, and explored a bit more of the similar problems that await many other similar communities. I also dive in a bit to what I see as a big looming problem, namely the passing away of the baby boom generation that represents the last predominantly socially and economically intact generation in some family lines.
