Unemployed without or with Unemployment extensions tier 1 2 3 4 5, it doesn't matter. Don't just wait to die.

1. Rage will come

Already I've heard talk of not voting for Obama the next election. He's turned into too much
a republican appeaser. Useless. No jobs, no homes, next is no food - I'm not kidding. Next spring
or summer. People will gather to create change - they're going to HAVE TO. People snap when
they're personally affected.

2. This is beginning to sound like an appropriate response to what is happening in our country.

The youth have adapted so much to get along.  They hardly have
any sense of self, or power.

I think we older folks owe them.  We need to get our balls
back and fix this for them,
while showing them how it is done.  Do we have it in us to
help the children to get
back their inheritance, or is it too late?  Will they be lambs
to the slaughter 
as were the Iraqi children?  Will they be all that is left,
powerless to be anything
but feudal slaves in the land of the free?  

What to do?  what to do?

3. I don't know.....

I think the time to worry about losing the horse is BEFORE it bolts out the open barn door. Joe Punchclock's been so engrossed in his favorite football team and other such superfluous and non-essential stuff, that he purposely turned a blind eye to the carpet that was slowly being pulled from beneath him.
NOW...... when he can't pay his cable bill and has to decide between a six pack or milk for the kids - NOW he's concerned!

This fella might be an exception - I don't know a thing about him. But only NOW is there a mumur of real discontent starting to rumble across this land. What WILL it morph into? That's the question. One thing for sure - you can't just COMMAND that jobs spring up and pay a living wage. This is the bottom that corporatists want us to feel. This way, we'll all be grateful for any job at any pay rate. And since we no longer make tools or the things we make with tools, we'll be flipping burgers for one another on our different shifts in "Service Economy" outlets.

Edit: DEPICTED BELOW - GOP OJT FOR
THE WORKFORCE OF TOMORROW.
