Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America

This book is a must have for any socialist or anyone who likes Michael Moore and non fictional, true to life, stories about the "working class." The journalist in question spends 3 months living life as an "average Joe" and realizes how hard life is for many people. Heart-wrenching, honest and candid without resorting to preaching or sentimentalism.
