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

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


Well written and interesting, this book brings home the struggle of a vast number of Americans and makes it real. No longer statistics, it brings us into the daily life of the millions of stuggling workers. Although it was written ten years ago, it's even more important today. I wish every elected official and corporate executive would read this-especially the ones who feel raising taxes on the poor is a good idea.
