What does this have to do with the observation that when a poor person gets towed, it can throw their whole life off the rails, and when a rich person gets towed, they don't even feel it? Do you think that because more poor people take public transit to work than rich people, that these stories don't matter?
Anything can do that including a health crisis (a far more common cause of financial despair), an arrest, or natural disaster. The entire premise of the article, the title of which states outright that towing fees are the worst part of inequality in America, is completely ridiculous. The worst part about inequality in America is that a million black men are in prison, and parking enforcement isn't even in the top 50 worst things about inequality in America.
What a freaking straw man's argument. Where in the article did the author state it's the "worst part of inequality of America", he merely says it's a part that's under reported and not many people are aware of.
And did you just compare horrible car towing companies to natural disasters? One is OBVIOUSLY WORSE than the other since last time I checked, tornadoes and earthquakes are not caused by greedy men working with corrupt government officially trying to squeeze money out of everyone.
