Have and Have Nots

Image via Wikipedia Since the recession, the gap between the haves and have nots has widen. President Obama has talked much about the gap between the poor and middle class growing. Jobs loss, low paying, wages and unemployment is the real cause between the have's and have not's. Many Americans are using food stamps and government assistance to make ends meet. Companies are laying off workers to cut their bottom line, and this makes it even harder for people to find work when no one is really hiring for some skilled labor.

Does The Dept. of Labor find Jobs

I like many Americans have been unemployed at some point and time. We have all went to the department of labor to look for work, and to no avail, we really didn't come out with any real leads that we can say got us the job. The constant sending of resumes, making calls, and going to job fairs at some point landed you and I a job. So, the question is whats the purpose of the Department of Labor? I got many friends who go into the Department of Labor looking for work, but still come up with nothing.

Image via Wikipedia Are Food Stamps enough for the families who have been out of work? The economy has been having a tough time recovering, and many Americans are still out of work. Food Stamps are meant to supplement a persons income to help with the food bill.
