Dear sir: Poverty can strike anywere but you still have to eat! When crime goes up the jobs are down. Good times bad times we support jobs were in some cases unemployment rates are up, directly affected mortgage lenders are simply in deficit along with the people. Get paid sirs or mams you can pay off loans or by more types of insurance; health, life, car, or truck than what you would do with. The national average goes up when the price go down, directly it affects conservation the department of agriculture and who better backs them up the people who in turn alies with the justice department. A job for some but not always everyone. Leaders with a one minded path of travel and with good goals; being able to follow those goals; sometimes is just another story. We all live in this country together when is the ball in our court room.\r
