Cheri Honkala's been homeless, unemployed and - like 44 million of her fellow citizens - doesn't have health care. She's one of the workers left behind by the globalized economy. Yet Cheri is an American citizen. In this edition of Life, Cheri, executive director of the Kensington Welfare Rights Union, tells the story of what's happened in her hometown, Philadelphia, and warns that America's economic boom could yet prove a disturbing model for the rest of the world.
