I'm actually almost done with this, but I haven't been recording anything. Several interesting insights, for example the authors suggest that the '96 welfare reform contributed to the deterioration of conditions and pay in entry level jobs by creating a glut of applicants.

This was an interesting and humanizing portrait of the very poor, whether generationally poor or dealing with transient homelessness. I think the authors do a good job of demonstrating something they mention in the beginning, that more than anything these folks just want a steady job.
