It's not about the poor being lazy, that's only part of the problem. It's about the rich exploiting the masses. Why can't a family live on $1000 a month? People used to be able too. It's about medical insurance. Medical insurance has become too costly, because of it being privatized. Funny how capitalism failed there. Or maybe it didn't fail, but what happened is exactly what was meant to happen, making money, even if it means denying people health. There are 50 million uninsured. yet how come if you walk in the streets there's nobody sick? Looks like the ininsured gets medical treatment somewhere for free. This doesn't make sense. Bank wires in Europe are cheap and almost free, and fast. Bank wires in the US cost $50 and take several weeks. How did this happen? Something in a private market in the capitalist country of USA is more expensive than in the socialist countries of Europe. And those bank wires are that way even when you send wires to different countries! Also overdraft fees. They aren't real-time. You can get hit with like 10 of them, if you assume they are. That's $300 in the pocket of the bank. The large banks that got saved like citigroup and BAC are the ones making the most out of overdraft fees. Yet when you talk to a bank clerk they seem to know nothing and are underpaid. Where is all the money going?? BP got a 90 million fine and it was the largest fine ever in the US for not executing safety precautions they said they would. But the biggest fine in Europe is 500 million. What is happening in the US people?? The rich are exploiting the masses in the USA and it's getting worse!

how nice! speaks nothing for the other staffer that didn't get the nod! (was kept on, or made another position available) the reality still speaks itself.... perhaps a few hundred thousand and more will be as fortunate as your reference group.... glad for them, but it portends nothing for all those others..., and there are hundreds of thousands of them....
