vox.com: Groundbreaking empirical research shows where innovation really comes from

Quote:
Rather than cutting taxes on financially successful adults, we ought to think about how to improve what Chetty calls our “capacity to tap into currently underused potential.” He and his colleague calculate that If women, minorities, and children from low- and middle-income families invented at the same rate as white men from high-income (top 20%) families, there would 4 times as many inventors in America as there are today.
Talk about rejecting you own causation/correlation premise.
