I love to see technological advancements, Yes! I love to see people achieving goals' Climbing mountains and becoming entrepreneurs.<br /> But take my life, there seems to be a lot of injustice in the world.<br /> My Farther was English, my mother English; both divorced. <br /> So now I'm stuck with White English, no dependents and a 24 Year old to boot.<br /> When you take in to account the reduced requisitions of companies, then take in to account; immigration, Equal Opportunities, initiatives to get alcoholics back in to work, sexual discrimination policies and students in training awaiting positions.<br /> Then my possibilities of a life without worry and stress from not having employment, are slim at best.<br /> I've been waiting on four agencies to find me work, since January 31st.<br /> And have sent out well over several hundred c.v.'s, all with courteous cover letters.<br /> How long am I to wait, I live with my mother who has to subsidies my living. (Not an easy task for her either.)<br /> Is this the price we pay for world advancement, is there a homeless program under way, similar to the nhs?<br /> Why aren't governments building cheap fordable housing, why are similar circumstances to my own occurring all around the European Union, and most of the world.<br /> Nick is correct as are others to determine that it is all interlinked, all connected. <br /> The factor I guess would be that the rich are to rich and we have no way of becoming similarly rich. <br /> Huge projects for example employ constructors, staff, a need for steel and raw matericals. <br /> Stimulating growth and providing jobs in hundreds of diffrent ways.<br /> Providing a focused end goal for everyone.<br /> Should these stresses be going on? With technology being how it is, is there no solution?<br /> In the meantime we can only hope Nick and others are working to find a similar feasible and agreeable balance, starting things moving once again.<br /> I fear that could be a while, quite a while :) But I do hope something is being done.<br /> This stimulus is trickling to the populous very slowly. My bank balance is still at fifty pence, and I'm no closer to the job.<br /><br />Regards.<br />Paul, (P.S. Can I have A Job?)Paul.noreply@blogger.com
