Thanks for the reply Perna. I have been reading a lot of other people's stories as well, but I had not seen that link so thank you for that. I have been wondering how I can help myself and other people in this situation. I feel like this issue is only getting worse and I wish the US society wasn't so tied down in debt that we could get together and make the government see our issues. But people are so busy with their own problems nowadays it is hard to get any type of issue going. I feel like most people in this country are fighting just to keep their head above water.
