This is a national tragedy.
I was walking with my neighbor the other morning in the park and you should have seen all the 50 somethings there, male and female and couples.
No one, but no one is getting hired.
The wife and I had just exited a MacDonalds and were getting ready to start the car when a well-dressed man came to the window and asked for some dough.
Jesu, I remember my dad talking about well-dressed people in threadbare suits asking for a quarter during the Depression. That incident rattled my cage more than any gloom-and-doom articles.
