4.0 out of 5 stars If you want to know where your tax dollar goes......... May 23, 2000
By "srcchrishale"
Format:Paperback
This was the most cutting edge welfare policy proposal that I have heard. Sherraden also refutes the demonization of the poor that the press would have us believe make up the entire welfare population. The only reason I didn't rate it 5 stars is that it is a little dry. But the early tough going is rewarded in the later chapters with his welfare policy proposals. For anyone concerned about where our entitlement tax dollars are going, this book is a must read.
