The economy softens...

The article in Mondova i read that after so long the welfare in Florida and Nevada is growing after decades of decline. Big businesses are picking up now that the economy is going bad. It states that the economy is having difficult time finding jobs.

Here is a clip from teh article that i found interesting.

In 1996, 12 million people were signed up for welfare in the United States. After new rules were adopted to force recipients to find jobs, the number dropped to 3.9 million adults.

This clip really amused me. How extreme some people will go just to get money.I kno in the past year people has had to get either a second job or a job because the checks and welfare money they recieve isn't paying enough. I never thought i would have to live in a time to see this going outragous. Prices are going up on everything and the biggest concern of mine is what's going to happen to the ones who barely make enough to get by...and the prices of utilities and payments and bills and everything keeps rising. What is going to happen to those people? The ones with families to support, and i know are barely making it if not that in this year.

I just dont see or understand why everything has to go up. It doesn't make sense to me. And it makes me wonder if the prices will ever go back down or will they keep increasing? That scares the crap out of me.

We have tuition in colleges raising in all states. Does the government or who ever is in control of this think its helping the economy? To me, I dont think kids coming out of high school is going to only think one time they want to go to college, i believe its going to be a decision thats going to require much thinking. Because the prices are crazy. Here we are trying to become something and help the world and yet its like the world is pushing us back.
