Americans take pride in their work, but most workers in the U.S. believe that working less would make them better at their jobs. This narrative shapes how we think about work and justifies policies that are unfriendly to workers.

US food and soft drink companies spent $106 MILLION dollars on lobbying last year- almost 2x as much as tobacco and alcohol *combined.*

And we wonder why the US is such a laggard on policies for chronic disease prevention...

We've concentrated a lot on the rise of mass incarceration and the prison boom, but we've been surprisingly slow to ask about the prison "bust." It turns out, prisons are closing faster than new ones open.

So why the heck are we seeing this surprising decline in prisons?
