Yes, it's hard for everyone.  What makes me angriest is when everyone
starts singing the praises of this economy - what's there to praise? 
The huge national debt (where are the surpluses of yesteryear?)?  The
huge unemployment rate?  The record numbers of personal bankruptcies?

I'm at least managing to eke out a living from the fact that the
educational system is horrible; how does everyone else survive?
