Why Desire For Economic Security is Not Being Met - Got laid off from his job and is sick with no source of income other than unemployment
More Fair Situation - He is highly educated and a valuable worker. If he could get another job like he had, it would be much easier
Relates To Social Class - At one point he was extremely dedicated and willing to work hard, now he lives off of unemployment because nobody will hire him. He may even be considered now the underclass.
Chose This Image - I chose this image because it amazed me how somebody so smart and talented could be out of work and living on unemployment.
More Fair Situation - It would be better if he could find a stable job and put one of his many wonderful talents to use.
Relates To Social Class - He only wants to be with the one he loves but that is impossible due to financial demands. He has so many talents that are not being appreciated due to being in the underclass.
Chose This Image - It saddened me to read this man's story and all the wonderful things he has to offer but nobody will accept. "Why Does The Caged Bird Sing? Because he still knows how to fly" - Right on man
Why Desire For Economic Security is Not Being Met - She can't afford to pay off here student debt despite all the hard work her and her parents do.
More Fair Situation - If jobs paid more so people could at least support themselves. It seems like the vast majority of the country can hardly afford to make ends meet.
Relates To Social Class - It is hard to find a job without a college education but you can't pay for college without a job. Loans are the only "solution" which only create more problems. Despite all her efforts she sees the American dream is dead...and i can't say i disagree
Chose This Image - she is headstrong and is going to persevere and I respect her for that. In times of such financial crisis she is still going to work hard and that takes a special kind of dedication
Why as a country and as an individual should we sit idly by and watch people struggle to survive? Shouldn't we help out our brothers and sister all across the nation? It seems that corruption and suffering are running rampant and nobody is doing anything to help. Why is green the only color that matters? Why is the only person who matters ourselves? We need to change ourselves as individuals before we can begin to heal as a nation. - Stay Strong 99%
The approach you take on self reliance I agree with completely. Half the people on this website are complaining about issues they created. They should stop moping about their sorrow and wasting their time on the internet. I truly feel bad for some people on this website. A large portion of people are struggling from their own lack of ability or own faults. If that is the case you are not part of the 99 percent your just in self indulged denial. This self indulged denial is creating an entitlement culture in this country which will bankrupt us all.
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of the third photo how it shows that people are still willing to persevere even though it is really hard for them. America has become so corrupt in the government that it is so easy to put the blame on them, and its arguably on either side on whether or not that should be done. Nice job.
