The understatement of the year. From all I read, hasn't it been dead and burried for decades? (Of course not for some founder who hit the jackpot like Jeff).

"Evidence indicates that in recent decades social mobility in the United States has declined, and income inequality has risen.[7][8] Social mobility is lower in the US than in many European countries, especially the Nordic countries.[9][10] Despite this, many Americans are likely to believe they have a better chance of social mobility than Europeans do.[11] The US ranked 27th in the 2020 Global Social Mobility Index.[12]"

The only related thing remained appears to be individual scheming and grinding to make it big, by whatever means necessary, and hope you get lucky. Not some notion that the current environment is conductive to that, or that "hard work" alone will get it, and for most young people forget about the "house with the white picket fence" too.

And the charity work mentioned, good as it might be, is more like a drop in the bucket, that won't change much either way.
