Hard Times

The current recession is something that is making people’s lives much more difficult, including my life and the lives of people in my family. We come from a very poor family and my half-sibling had nothing to help them get into college, so all they could do was work jobs. Unfortunately, a job cannot be found where we live. Applications have been put in with every place we could find, but unemployment still lingers. We have moved from home to home, at least five times this year and we are always broke. I do not even know what the other aspects of the current recession are. All I know is that unemployment is making it very difficult for me and my family to survive.
