My friend got a job as a systems engineer.

He says that things seem to be looking up economically. I don't know whether to be happy for him or mad at myself for not landing a decent job. I also don't know whether to be happy because the economy is SUPPOSEDLY improving or angry because the neocons will spin this to their advantage.

I will say this: Many Americans went through some sort of hell during the course of this administration. Even if things improve, we will still be far behind where we were in 2000. Furthermore, I hope the people who may have gotten their lives back on track will not forget the hell they went through or who put them through it come the election.
