Hidden Costs and Social Equity
This chapter examines the impact of 'junk fees' on marginalized communities, particularly low-income individuals and people of color, by analyzing hidden costs in services like airlines and ride-sharing. It also explores the interplay between classism and racism in financial burdens, alongside a discussion on the importance of competence over niceness in professional roles.
