CBS has produced a very sobering video about white collar formerly employed, productive members of society, in this report from the Silicon Valley, who are now at the end of their unemployment benefits, have cashed in their IRA's and savings, sometimes lost their homes and are now have no idea what's going to happen to them as they go to food pantrys, soup kitchens and (some are) dumpster diving for recyclables to sell.

The video takes a few minutes but it's well worth the watch. It's heartbreaking. I don't know what we are going to do to turn things around in this country.

National Unemployed and Underemployed 17.5%, 22% in California

(The Katie Couric pimping only lasts a few seconds, grit your teeth the vid is worth the watch)

I hope that video leaves a mark on the worst President and Congress...ever.
