Being Poor Is Expensive, Still
Now Playing: The Sonics / Maintaining My Cool / Hanky Panky

The Washington Monthly has a nice article on just how difficult it is to get a job if you don't have a car, and how much more difficult it is to be a good mom or dad when you have an hour-long bus ride to work each way.

I always find backdoor social engineering through the tax code to be a little bit gauche -- there's no reason to make filing taxes more and more complicated for poor people -- and setting the income limit at $50,000 strikes me as a touch too high, but it would seem to me that doing something for those who make less than around $30,000 is a good idea.

And Working Wheels is fantastic.
