You really don't know!

I will never laugh at the joke "its a depression!" anymore, because its not a joke at all! Millions of people have lost their jobs and now are having to either find a new one, file for unemployment, or cut back in a major way. I believe that we really don't know or understand what these people go through! Lets say that there is a 40 year old man with a wife and 3 children. Him and his wife both have jobs and they each pay half of all the bills and living expenses that come their way. Now lets say, that that man gets laid off, he may have severance for a couple of months but when that wears off all the bills will have to be paid by the wife! This means that they cant live like they used to.

This can take a major toll on a person mentally! The fact that, at one time you where financially stable, and then with in one day you loose that source of income, is very scary and could caught depression. I can try and relate to a person that has lost their job and is struggling, but the fact is, you cant really relate to something you haven't gone through!
