Title: The real point of the book
Review: The real point of this book, missed by everyone, is that "if you work below your ability and live beyond your means, you won't succeed."Ms. Ehrenreich does everything but realize this obvious life lesson, including making up wild conspiracy theories about corporations. The book has been used to help justify increasing the minimum wage. As if forcing companies to fire thousands of workers to make up for the inflated wages of others would help anything.She did decide to work below her ability, and live a relatively extravagant lifestyle for the meager value of the work. She even failed to do what someone has to do when they are faced with such situations, such as cut living expenses by finding other roommates.Yes, if you decide to be lazy and greedy and work below your ability and live beyond your means, things will be tough. But that is your choice. Take responsbility, and don't blame others for your shortcomings.
