I found this reading incredibly interesting. I have always known that people work in terrible jobs and don't make nearly enough money, however, I have never truly thought about it until now. I know that sounds terrible and rather self centered but I think that is the way a lot of middle class citizens think. We all know it's there but we would rather not think about it because it is sad to us.
To be honest, I think this completely defies the stereotype of the "American Dream" because it is somewhat unattainable in their situation, especially if the families continue spending there money frivolously as mentioned in Ch. 1.
