Nicked and Dimed: On (not) getting by in America, by Barbara Ehrenreich, is a fantastic book that everyone should read.
She takes on several entry-level jobs (waitress, etc...) and tries to get by on the money she brings in. The book is just amazing, and should help convince anyone that the mythical conservative idea that "anyone who wants to work, can work and can get by just fine" is not true, not by a long shot.
