An attempt to hitch the consequence before the cause
" I've Read This Article Several Times And I Still Don't Understand What The Author Is Trying To Say"
I like how you formal-capped that headline.
My reading of the article's first few 'graphs which is all I could bother about, is that an attempt is being made to hitch the consequence of social inequities before the causes of failed policies.
IOW, rrrraaaaacccccciiiiiissssssstttttttt.
