"No one who lived through the Great Depression can ever look upon an unemployed person with anything but compassion.
To me, there is no greater tragedy than a breadwinner willing to work, with a job skill but unable to find a market for that job skill. Back in those dark depression days I saw my father on Christmas eve open what he thought was a Christmas greeting from his boss.
Instead, it was the blue slip telling him he not longer had a job.
The memory of him sitting there holding that slip of paper and then saying in a half whisper, 'That's quite a Christmas present; it will stay with me as long as I live.'"Ronald Reagan
To Restore America, Ronald Reagans Campaign Address March 31, 1976
