“I am well aware of what is going on in America. I also know that the Great Depression was far worse than today. I also know that people chose all sorts of justifications for doing the wrong thing”

You think you know, but you don’t. The First Great Depression was not as bad as today. Failing to find a job when there are no jobs is not “doing the wrong thing.”

Don’t break your leg if you finally decide to get down off that high horse.

You are factually incorrect.

Look families raised their children for thousands of years without needing preschool. It is only since the late 1960s that the US has decided that preschool is somehow good for children. Try reading something like Why Johnny Can’t Read. I don’t know if you are feeling guilty or what but the ‘failing to find a job’ is nonsense. I had to return to work recently. I had to change my resume. I had to hit the streets. I had to go to places and ask if they were hiring. AND most importantly I had to take a job outside of my field.

This is what people used to do. It is only when you have 99 weeks of unemployment that people feel entitled.

Do some serious reading about the 1920s and 1930s in this country and learn a thing or two.

And by the way....How in the world does someone afford pre-school if they aren’t working and have no gas to get any where???

And since you live in Colorado (which is where I was raised) how about mowing lawns, raking leaves, shoveling snow, running errands....there are plots of jobs out there just too many folks who don’t want to do them
