Dream Hoarders

In general, I think this book has an important message about realizing where to draw the line when it comes to people being considered “rich“.
It felt a little unfocused at times, the author's own strong dislike of anything resembling a class-based society sometimes gets in the way of a clear exploration of the ideas.
That said, it felt pretty realistic in its suggestions and had some interesting ideas. Definitely worth thinking about for many people.

As a liberal, upper middle class person, I definitely felt called out in more ways than one. As Reeves acknowledged in the book, I did come in with the assumption that it was the 1% that were the problem. Unfortunately, this book didn't provide enough evidence to really change my mind.

Yes, the upper middle class must reform. Our tax system is regressive, and the policies he called out are unethical. But why not both? Let's reform the 1% AND the upper middle class.
