Story of Low-Wage Workers in the United States

Herein lies the story of some of the many low-wage workers in the United States shortly before, during and after the Great Recession of 2007 through 2009.

It is the story of hard-working, intelligent people who long for a living wage and basic benefits. It is the story of senior citizens, mostly women, who can''t make ends meet on Social Security, and young people recently graduated from college who can''t find a job in their chosen field.
