It took me a long time of numerous unemployments to finally get the message! Jobs are not the answer; we need to start a program to mentor people to start their own businesses. I can testify to the benefits of how this empowers a person to think and act as a (independent business person) not a interdependent always losing and hunting a job. This is the Real American Dream for those struggling to have a life.

The thing to remember is this; if your work and training helped someone else find their dream commonsense says if you can do it for them you can very easilly do it for yourself and pocket the benefits.

We need to start passing this message as early as Junior High School to our kids. Do not expect to have a job working for somebody else by the time you reach the age of 40. As soon as you get your first summer job, start saving away to build up enough capital to start your own company, and start building up networks as soon as you get into college that you can draw on later when you are going to need help starting up. This is the reality, get used to it.
