Why You are a Lot Poorer Than You Thought You Were

An American Journey Across Expendable Communities and People
Chris Hedges, Nation Books: ''In a room across the street from Sacred Heart Catholic Church, where meals are provided for the homeless on Saturdays, a group of African American women bow their heads over a table and hold hands.

Inequality in America is at record levels. The 400 richest Americans now have more wealth than the bottom 150 million of us put together.''
