Helpful Score: 5

An excellent book that covers the plight of (through no fault of their own)unemployed and under-employed white-collar middle class victims of U. S. corporate greed and callous out-sourcing/off-shoring.

"By eliminating other peoples jobs, top management can raise its' own income."

This greed has been illustrated over and over during the past ten years with examples like the Andreas' family at ADM, Lay and Skilling at Enron, and Ebbers at WorldCom.

Ehrenreich provides an excellent summation in the last chapter (Conclusion) of the book.
