OK, this is getting ridiculous. The country is ashambles with the economy in the toilet and no sign of recovery . We're all scrambling for threads of a life and comfortzone/standard of life we used to live decades ago.

What makes it worse is that every attempt I try -and try -and try again to hold onto anything it all goes slipping back into the hands of the system.

I have grown accustomed to living at means well below what is considered poverty level here. That's alright. I can deal with that.

What really pisses me off is potential employers, potential relationships, potential Life -is all denied me because of my current poor economic state.

Maybe I'm not trying hard enough. Maybe in the wrong direction/focus. Yeah, that sounds more likely.

It just makes me more frustrated every day.

Jesus, it's a good thing I have myself to figure all this shit out.
That's sorta what Hell is supposed to be like, isn't it? The dangling carrot -always within sight but never attainable.

" I feel your pain. Just when we think things are going to turn around we get hit with something else. We all know that is just the way life is and a few years ago when the "something else" hit we struggled but were o.k. This day and time when it hits we lose something else.

I am tired of losing stuff!!!! We don't have luxury items, no boats, no vacation home etc... We are just struggling to hang on to the basics - the roof over our head, groceries, electricity etc...

All we can do is hang in there - I am tired of stressing about it all and try not to worry - some days I handle it better then others. "

" Zounds, I understand what you meant.

This country is all about capitalism. Only the rich will survive this depression while the poor and middle classes are scrambling for survival every day. "
