Netflix’s adaptation of J. D. Vance’s autobiography,
Hillbilly Elegy: A Memoir of a Family and Culture in Crisis, is more than a rags-to-riches story. It dramatizes one the most important points in economics. For those unfamiliar with it, the summary from Wikipedia says,
“Vance describes his upbringing and family background while growing up in the city of Middletown, Ohio, the third largest city in the Cincinnati metropolitan area. He writes about a family history of poverty and low-paying, physical jobs that have since disappeared or worsened in their guarantees and compares this life with his perspective after leaving that area and life.”
