Contrary to popular belief, what is important in science is as much its spirit as its product: it is as much the openmindedness, the primacy of criticism, the submission to the unforeseen, however upsetting, as the result, however new that may be. – Francois Jacob www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Child poverty in the U.S. is four times as likely to lead to adult poverty than in Denmark and Germany, and twice as likely than in the UK and Australia. Why? I write about our findings on "the intergenerational persistence of poverty" today in The Atlantic: www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Most scholarship on the subject focuses on conditions during childhood. But government support during adulthood plays the biggest role.
