Review of The Big Squeeze - June 06, 2008

There seems to be a growing chorus of critics - from those of the political left and the political right - that FedEx Ground's contractor scam is the ailment of a larger sickness in the American economy.

The New York Times journalist Steven Greenhouse covers the "working" beat for the newspaper.  An excerpt from his most recent book talked about Ground's abusive contractor model and its impact on one driver.

Greenhouse's book takes a broader look at the daily struggles of working Americans.  Reviews of his writing and thesis are spreading on the web.
