Important information to ponder and consider

What’s fascinating (and troubling) to me is how our system perpetuates weathering even beyond our current circumstances. One of the biggest a-ha moments in this book (for me) was thinking about voting. The fact that weathering (via health outcomes, neglectful medical personnel, etc.) has literally decreased the number of people who can vote. Knowing that population of voters would, more than likely, vote democratic is something to really think about. Systems set up to marginalize people, while also literally killing them off in ways that perpetuate the marginalization.
