40. Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America
Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America is a book written by Barbara Ehrenreich over 10 years ago. It was also done as a play in 2003. I saw it when the play came to Austin Texas. The book and the play really do a great job showing how minimum wage employees in several job categories try to get by: day by day week by week. It ain't a pretty sight.
