Poverty CAN be eradicated in the United States.

This heartbreaking, scathing book describes the inhumanity of poverty, why it's allowed, and who really benefits.

And trust, this book exposes poverty in a way mainstream media talking heads and Ivy League economists willfully avoid.

This book should've won a Pulitzer Prize and is a read I highly recommend to anyone with the courage to ask tough questions about the why of poverty - and what we can collectively do about eliminating it.

Fuck that.

We need to tax the hell out of the one percent - and force employers to pay a living wage for EVERY job.

There. Fixed it for them.
