When Ernestine D. Motouom moves to the United States, she is ready to live the American dream. Instead, she finds a system of modern slavery that has powered the US economy for centuries. In her new guide to political economy and the sociology of class, Motouom takes a fresh approach that combines medical, sociological, and population studies with personalized anecdotes and examples. She shows you how * the US emphasis on productivity above everything else threatens employee rights; * income inequality is perpetuated by an uncaring corporate culture; * point systems have taken away workers' dignity; * poor work conditions have led to the health care crisis and numerous social consequences; * the US health care system is based solely on greed; and * her own personal journey opened her eyes to the inhumanity of America's industries. Motouom's innovative and riveting critique of labor relations, the health care system, and for-profit universities in present US society will shock and distress you-as it should.
