Ehrenreich, B. (2001). Nickeled and dimed: On (not) getting by in Amerika. New York, NY: Henry Holt and Company.
A journalist poses as a low-wage worker to test the feasibility of getting by on minimum wages in Americka. Ehrenrich works as a maid, a waitress, a swim instructor, a child care employee, a janitor at a nuclear power plant, and in sales at a nursery. During her experiences in these low-wage jobs, Ehrenriech finds that it's impossible to survive on just one job. She decides to write to the President of the United States for help. The President helps her with a free apartment for two months, but then Ehrenrich is forced to move into a hotel room with twelve other low-wage workers to survive. This source was written in 2001, so it's current because it was written during the past twenty years. Ehrenrich's name is a combination of the words "Ehren" and "rich," so this shows she was predestined to be an expert in evaluating economic scenarios. The book was a bestseller, so this also shows it must be credible. I plan to use this source to show that poor people mostly lack money because they are lazy.
