[QUOTE="goldenguru, post: 220911, member: 1545"] Well I live in Michigan, which currently holds the dubious distinction of the worst unemployment rate in the nation. There are areas here that actually resemble ghost towns. I can't imagine what will happen if the government chooses not to provide the bail out package for the automotive industry. Currently, it is the only industry (barely) keeping our state from certain death. On a personal note, my brother in law & sister in law are currently homeless. They were living in a 15 foot camper - heating it with- an electric space heater. A serious fire hazard to say the least. We had a small office space empty - and we encouraged them to move in there. They at least have a flush toilet and small sink. They were so thankful. I was so humbled. I have to wonder how many families will end up like brother in law & sister in law. Losing their home to foreclosure. Unable to find work. Homeless. God help us all. [/QUOTE]
