American voters aren't quite as stupid as Clinton (or the "insiders" at Politico) think, and as a slew of after-event polls showed, they weren't falling for her lies about Trump, her phony statistics, or her breath-taking claim that life in America's inner-cities has improved over the past twenty years.

There's long been a racial element to Trump's history: By suggesting that inner cities are out of control with crime, Trump effectively dog-whistled to white Americans that black communities are out of control — and they need a strongman like him to fix them up and keep all of America safe from them.

Trump's insistence that America is in the midst of a nationwide crime wave (when, in reality, crime has ticked upward slightly but is still half of 1990s levels) resonates with people who have long believed that crime has been rising and who are concerned about disorder in inner cities that they themselves do not see.

" He added that Lewis (who, prior to his career in Congress, had his skull fractured by law enforcement officers as he marched to demand voting rights for black people in 1965) "should finally focus on the burning and crime infested inner-cities of the U.S." Trump's argument "bears little relation to the facts," Vox's Dara Lind pointed out, explaining, "Atlanta is the heart of the black middle class in America.

But for too many of our citizens, a different reality exists: Mothers and children trapped in poverty in our inner cities; rusted-out factories scattered like tombstones across the landscape of our nation; an education system flush with cash, but which leaves our young and beautiful students deprived of knowledge; and the crime and gangs and drugs that have stolen too many lives and robbed our country of so much unrealized potential.

Mr Giridharadas's trick is to focus on the more intriguing parts of the Davos world-view: that businesses can "do well by doing good"; that philanthropy needs to be "reinvented" for the age of the internet and the T-shirt-wearing billionaire; and that one of the greatest problems facing the world, even as some inner-cities are ravaged by drugs and violence, is that there aren't enough Davos Women to join the Davos Men in this win-win nirvana.

Having worked as an economist in the former U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare in the 22019s and in the Ford White House, I've begun to wonder two things: Since 1960, America has created and expanded, in Republican and Democratic administrations, the civil rights acts, programs to address a guaranteed income floor for the poor and their children (Aid to Families With Dependent Children), food for poor families (food stamps), housing for the poor (Section 8), opportunity for children in poor families (Head Start, Women Infants and Children, and busing), legal aid for the poor, urban development programs to revitalize inner cities, Title 1 and Title 9 to increase opportunity for the disadvantaged and women in education, affirmative action and EEO, and other efforts to assure fairness for women and minorities in the workforce and education, health care for the poor and the elderly (Medicare and Medicaid), and many other programs to create equal opportunity for everyone.
