Wall Street strategist Michael Green caused a stir on social media last week with his outlandish claim that the federal poverty line should be raised to cover individuals earning as much as $140,000 annually.
That claim, which Green made on his Substack and subsequently in The Free Press, has been widely debunked by the likes of Scott Winship, Jeremy Horpedahl, Noah Smith, and Tyler Cowen (whose article pointing out Green's errors was published, somewhat hilariously, in The Free Press too).
