Don't Give Up

In recent days, I have chatted with too many people who have been unemployed for 6 to 18 months and longer in a few cases. They are worried about unemployment extensions running out, college tuition for their children, mortgage payments, car loans, certainly nothing extravagant. It seems to me we are getting nothing but lip service from our leaders. For example, Governor Christie of NJ has been destroying labor unions yet he does not seem to have a plan to replace those jobs. The White House does not seem to notice that the not for profit business world is on life support. Speaker of the House Pelosi has not inspired any sort of recovery plan either. Obviously, neither political party has any answers. This is where it gets scary folks. Fringe party politicians (and perhaps the not so fringe Tea Party) are making gains right now and most of them have very dangerous agendas. Everyone needs to wake up and get their acts in gear immediately.
