| Help with a book title/author |
|
A few years back, probably no more than two, there was a book written by a woman who took low paying jobs and tried to live on minimum wage. Can DUer help me with the book title or author? In the book the author was able to show the fallacies of the inadequate minimum wage structure, and showed that even working hard was insufficient at these low wage levels.
Thanks a bunch!!

You can probably finish it in a night or two, or a long Sunday afternoon. Check it out.
