Book Review: Abundance: Overcoming Scarcity and the Procedural Kludge

Book Bites Episode 22

Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson's "Abundance" argues for a shift from a scarcity mindset to one focused on building solutions for challenges like climate change and healthcare. The authors contend that a "procedural kludge" of regulations hinders progress and advocate for "supply-side progressivism," emphasizing increased production and streamlined processes. While many appreciate the book's insightful analysis and call for proactive governance, some critics find it oversimplified and insufficiently attentive to the limits of the planet and issues beyond supply. Ultimately, "Abundance" aims to reframe societal problems and inspire a more constructive approach to creating a prosperous future.
