unemployment

do you know someone who is unemployed? are you unemployed? there are a lot of feelings associated with unemployment. our nation has been hit hard by it and each states rate is higher than ever. pick up a newspaper and it's in the headlines. turn on the television or the radio and it's a topic talked about.

no longer are just the little dogs being hit. the big dogs are getting slammed as well. layoffs are affecting those who have been on the job for months along with many years. unemployment is not discriminating. once unemployed, finding employment again is getting harder and harder.

ryan star is a singer who had some friends who became unemployed. he put a music video to a song called 'breathe' and solicited them in addition to other real people also unemployed to appear in the video. the hope is that this will lead to job opportunities for these folks.

there's even a website devoted to the cause: breathe4jobs if you go there, you can see who the people are and if they've found jobs yet. very cool...

oh yeah... here's the song...

happy day.....
