[QUOTE="OKRuss, post: 3653933, member: 41777"] Just curios how those 3% are making ends meet? If most are from restaurants, bars, hotels and retail, they'll need other skills in order to obtain a job in the areas listed that were relatively flat. Just knowing what a hammer and nail are won't get you a job as a carpenter. Plus, most folks from the service industry I've met aren't the kind to roll up their sleeves and start digging ditches. Unemployment, even with extensions and extra from the govt, has all but stopped I believe. So, how are all these people getting money to live on? If in CA, just get into shoplifting but what about the other "normal" states. Are they going back to school, running up more student loan debt in hopes of it all being forgiven? No other way to get into some of those jobs without a specific degree. Parents? Family? Guess getting old as I just can't figure out some of the younger generations way of thinking. [/QUOTE]
