Screwed, The Undeclared War Against The Middle Class, by Thom Hartman. ISBN 1-57675-414-6. I got this book at Powells for cheap. My copy is the first edition (2006.) There is a more recent second edition. The book is easy to read and well written. It appears to me to be well researched, many stated facts are sourced with notes/references. The book is a bit of a downer, because Hartmann paints a pretty bleak picture. He does end it with recommended actions that the reader can pursue.
