Everyone has their favorites, but I just have one basic request which I did not find on their site.
Please correct me if I am wrong and somehow I overlooked it.
I want our jobs brought back. It is true that some are just a casualty of our abysmal economy that * has torn to shreds, but we also know that there are tax incentives for companies to outsource, and improve the profits to shareholders.
I don't claim to know how to go about it or even all the reasons behind it....all I know is that we need jobs...jobs with health benefits or universal health insurance.
I am now receiving unemployment benefits, but I would rather be employed. I worry that I will lose the roof over my head and have to live under an overpass. All it would take right now is a trip to the emergency room and I would be on the street. I purchased my modest home 13 years ago, but I am afraid my mortgage company would not tolerate not paying the mortgage. I cannot afford health insurance and I am over 55 and single. I have never lived beyond my means, but I am barely getting by, and yet I am doing far better than others out there.
There are people on DU that have been unemployed for years! We need jobs! Good jobs!
