This book suggests that we should pay ourselves with 10% of all…

His shirt hung on him like an oversized bag; the sleeves darkened from repeated wear. The stench of urine wafted off of his tiny body.

Initially, Arendt’s argument parallels Weber’s, as she discusses the ancient Greek polis, wherein only the wealthy could participate in politics as they were free from…

the same problems low-income Americans go through with an income of between US$2.43 and US$7 an hour. The book majors on the theme of poverty at length as the author demonstrates the difficulty of survival with a low-waged job.
