That doesn't take into account millions of people whose jobs were downsized to part-time, or who took salary/pay cuts.
So number 3 alone on your stupid list kicked their ass. What do you suggest they do if they cannot recoup their losses and slip into poverty?
Now take a $1,300,000 medical bill for your average American family, full employed. That can happen. It happened to me and my late spouse. Empire Blue picked and chose what they thought worthy to reimburse over 3.5 years of chemo and surgery for him. So when the dust settled I was left with a $285,000 balance.
Can you write a check for that? Why don't you instead just STFU.
You live in a world of unreality and should live more, read less.
You Liberal idiot...oh, was that redundant??
Losing a job does not preclude getting another.....or creating one.
Lots of folks who aren't as lazy or as inept as you are do just that.
With unemployment at 6.2% as opposed to 10% in October 2009, it looks like many people did.
But the questions are:
1. How long they were unemployed before finding a new job.
2. Difference in salaries
3. Full or part-time work
A wobble in any of these areas can alter the resources and capabilities of anyone, and in the case of the last 6 years, more people are making less and working more hours, as well as two jobs to compensate.
Thanks for your rhetorical response. It shows your true ignorance when faced with the facts behind the opinions of people who live in glass houses.
And if and when you ever have a catastrophic illness, I hope you end up in absolute financial devastation. You deserve nothing more.
It's always someone else's problem, right?
