[QUOTE="Charlie Zureki, post: 35650, member: 153"] Re: Gibson raided Hey JR. There is some truth that those that can collect Unemployment Benefits/ Welfare have no particular incentive to actually find work. Those are not the people that I worry about, I'm concerned with those that spent many years in College or learning a trade/craft that cannot find work. Or, those over the age of fifty that have been dismissed because of age-ism, down sizing, etc... Also...there has to be jobs available, Wallmart can only have so many door greet-ers. Many Companies will not even consider those with "too much experience" Our Country has become like many around the World, there just isn't any jobs. There are no funds available to start new Businesses, unless the prospective Business builders have experience in Business start-ups and existing funds to get the ball rolling. We have been seeing the gap come into play. The "gap" is the period between the traditional mind-set of find a job, work hard, be a good employee, and retire from this Company, and then.... the mind-set of do not count on any Company for a steady position, get an Education, build your own business, no loyalty to anyone but their own interests, etc.. Our Generation of Boomers have seen the biggest changes in Employment mind-set. There is no reward for most to be a loyal employee, the younger workers have this idea down. Just random thoughts.... I'm not in fear of mobs or riots in my hood... it takes some effort to get there. I believe in "being prepared"...because I may "need it". Hammer [/QUOTE]
