Bootstraps Need Boots: One Tory's Lonely Fight to End Poverty in Canada by Hugh Segal
3.0
A fascinating account of Hugh Segal’s family history and the very detailed (and I must confess) a tad tedious, confusing narrative of his political life with new multiple personalities popping up in each paragraph that influenced him. I had hoped to gain insights into Universal Basic Income but was disappointed on that account. Mr. Segal provides the political rational across all spectra, reinforced by his own family’s example why UBI is a tool worthy of more serious consideration. However, it just trickles off at that level. An excellent communicator, he could have provided a more definitive solution.
