I read this book as an undergrad and my lasting impression is that it went on forever. As a resource on poverty and the welfare system, this book can't be beat. It's worth the time but is so chock full of information that it warrants more than one glance.

Though politically committed, it seems impressive in its historical scope.

The next title will probably be: Why Americans Will Never Vote. The author graciously assumed that we have a good system, that just needs tuning, and she got the actual tuning done. I saw her in person, and I think she will not rest until she has the ultimate answer.
