Here is a solution.....

And it has worked for me many times, MOVE TO WHERE THERE
ARE JOBS!

I've lost jobs due to selling of the corp, moving the corp to
where the taxes are lower, and having the corp. go bankrupt
(dot com bust). If I couldn't find a job locally, I moved to where
there was a job.

Sure, it's a pain in the rear, but it beats starving. My last move
was in 2002 and it involved moving 2100 miles. Fortunately for
me, it was where I wanted to be for the past 10 years.

Remember, nobody owes you a job. It is not the business of
government to make sure you are fed, clothed, or housed. That
is YOUR responsibility. If you are in debt up to your eyeballs, and
can't afford to move, whose fault is that? Mine? George Bush's?
CEOs of major corporations? Nope, its yours.

It is sad that America has become a country of whiners and will
blame everyone and everything they can for thier situation
instead of looking in the mirror and accepting responsibility.

Three times in my life I've had to drain my bank account from as
high as $30,000 down to $0.00 (and I'm only 38). Did I ***** and
complain? No, I recovered from 2 spinal surgeries, put my nose
to the grindstone and built it back up. Did I go out and buy huge
houses, new cars, and toys I'd love to have? Nope. Even making
80k a year, I lived beneath my means planning for the day when
things would go sour. Last year they did again. I was able to help
out my mother when my father died in a motorcycle accident.
Dad didn't plan too well and had very little life insurance. Now
I'm paying her bills and she won't lose her house and 21 acres of
land, even tho I'm making less than half of what I once was.

Financial responsibility, LEARN IT, LOVE IT, LIVE IT.
