Those of us that are unemployed through no fault of our own depend on our unemployment to keep a roof over our heads and food on the table. As we seek employment on a day to day basis in a country with a 9.9% unemployment rate it is imperative that we have a way to support ourselves and our families. Until the economy changes or jobs are created for the layman, unemployment is all that we have. If something doesn't happen to help the unemployed soon, we fear that a rise in homelessness and crime are inevitable.
