The Recession Is Over?

All around me I see signs of things getting worse. As just an average person going about my day I'm seeing more empty stores and the ones still open, which aren't as crowded, sporting sales signs trying to entice customers. There are more obviously homeless people.

Through my work I am seeing more people being dragged into court, ordered to bring all their financial information, in order to enforce judgments against them usually for a consumer loan. Noticeably more people are getting evicted for non payment of rent.

Now this sad local story.....

Man sets fire to home and hangs self in yard.
"People who know the man told authorities he was going to be evicted from the residence for failure to pay rent, Fields said."

Michael Moore should include that story in his next film.

I did remember something I learned from "Capitalism" that I hadn't been aware of before. US Airline pilots are grossly underpaid for what they do. Some have second jobs. Some qualify for food stamps.

That is appalling.
