There are some similarities with Jimmy Malaise Carter. Lots of Viet Nam Veterans came home to find few jobs and a hostile population that would not give a vet a job. Carter had wrecked the economy with his voodoo economics. Gas prices were rising daily and gas shortages were common. Few vets wanted to work for the Government but with veterans preference we swallowed our pride and worked for the evil empire.

Not enough Ross Perots out there...Perot gave preference to Vietnam War vets when he was running EDS.

Viet Nam was over before Carter became president. Veterans were having a hard time getting jobs but it was before Carter. I don’t think Ford’s W.I.N. buttons were helping. And it did get much worse after Carter took over. Boy, was it tough!
