Download or read book Nickel and Dimed written by Barbara Ehrenreich and published by Metropolitan Books. This book was released on 2010-04-01 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times bestselling work of undercover reportage from our sharpest and most original social critic, with a new foreword by Matthew Desmond, author of Evicted Millions of Americans work full time, year round, for poverty-level wages. In 1998, Barbara Ehrenreich decided to join them. She was inspired in part by the rhetoric surrounding welfare reform, which promised that a job—any job—can be the ticket to a better life. But how does anyone survive, let alone prosper, on $6 an hour? To find out, Ehrenreich left her home, took the cheapest lodgings she could find, and accepted whatever jobs she was offered. Moving from Florida to Maine to Minnesota, she worked as a waitress, a hotel maid, a cleaning woman, a nursing-home aide, and a Wal-Mart sales clerk. She lived in trailer parks and crumbling residential motels. Very quickly, she discovered that no job is truly "unskilled," that even the lowliest occupations require exhausting mental and muscular effort. She also learned that one job is not enough; you need at least two if you int to live indoors. Nickel and Dimed reveals low-rent America in all its tenacity, anxiety, and surprising generosity—a land of Big Boxes, fast food, and a thousand desperate stratagems for survival. Read it for the smoldering clarity of Ehrenreich's perspective and for a rare view of how "prosperity" looks from the bottom. And now, in a new foreword, Matthew Desmond, author of Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City, explains why, twenty years on in America, Nickel and Dimed is more relevant than ever.

Download or read book Freedom Without Borders written by Hoyt L. Barber and published by Praeger. This book was released on 2011-07-06 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hoyt Barber is a tax-haven guru and offshore-funds protection specialist. You can use his hands-on methods to reduce or even eliminate your US taxes by moving your capital to Belize, the Cook Islands, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Panama, Dominica or other tax havens - and by relinquishing your US citizenship. Despite his solid financial counsel, Barber takes up a lot of space with discordant political predictions of America's fiscal doom that may strain your patience, credulity and patriotism. getAbstract finds his asset protection strategies potentially interesting, but we'd point out that as usual the opinions expressed in the abstract are those of the author alone.
