In my experience there were two ways people responded. The way you describe their plight were people sit around feeling sorry for themselves, and the way I describe opportunity and they way I have seen people respond to a bad situation.
I don't get your point.

What oppurtunity are you describing man, besides blaming the workers for losing their jobs and benefits and having to work 2 p/t jobs with no benefits trying to make ends meet.
Tell the people that are working those 2 jobs and doing all they can to try to make it that they are feeling sorry for themselves and should move to where the jobs are, or go to school.
Seriously Ace, your not showing anything except to blame the worker for everything.
