THE METHOD OF THE MADNESS AND THE MADNESS TO THE METHOD

Right now as I write this I have a huge angst!! Tired, irritated and bothered by so much. Normally I try to be Ms. Positivity but I have seen and experienced so much for the past year that it has been mad crazy! Of course we all know that there are so many that are struggling trying to make it. Those who are just trying to pay bills, survive, eat or even get a job. Mind you that people are placing themselves in precarious situations in order to make ends meet. Some people are selling their souls in order to survive. The angst from what I see is those who need a job and are not looking because they are co-dependent on others. While I see some who are in tears, worry and under fire because they cannot get a job and are looking for a job! Who in the hell said that the employment levels have risen in the U.S.? Really? Have they? Let me tell what I see or have experienced in regards to the job market. Especially to those who are on the executive level in the game. They are being offered employment with insurance companies or collection companies. I indeed love this one “Account Executives” which basically is the new for “sales representative” So now most of these jobs want you to sale or collect. Some of these jobs are not paying you a salary or by the hour! Which means that you literally have to hustle! So if you are not a smooth sales person then you will find yourself working and “hustling” hard and can't get over, or up and out because you don't have the right “lingo” or enough persuasion skills. Uh this is utter chaos to me! Now pardon me, how do you have these type of jobs when the economy is so bad? How? You want to collect when prices rise and maybe someone has lost a home. Maybe someone had to move back home because they can't handle it all alone? Are these truly good jobs?

If jobs have gotten better and more are being created I indeed cannot see it! I don't see it because a lot of employers are paying less. Those that pay good are hard to get! I am in no way disrespecting the president. Because no matter who the president was over the states it was going to be hard on that individual because of what the former president did to the country! So now a lot of us truth be told; White, Black, Asian (all Asian ethnic background) Latino and ethnic mixtures in between are on some form of welfare! Please believe that! A lot of us are unemployed! Our current President has extended so much money to help us all from not killing, robbing and committing mad chaos in the world and on each other just to survive! I know that you may shake your head at this, but it is so very true. Is there crime in our cities and towns? Very much so it is! I concur to the fullest! In other words hell yeah! But just imagine no welfare, no unemployment extensions, shelters, food banks, clothing assistance, SSI, disability or disaster relief!!! Talk about chaos and mass hysteria in the world!! I am not sure if any of you know that when hurricane Katrina hit there were people that came home and found others sleeping on their floor. Or have raided someones refrigerator just to eat and not steal anything but food! I have heard of so many wild and way out stories! And yet and still there are many suffering from that devastation and lost! Now add this recession we are all in. Have been in way past a decade now.

When you have many Americans of all backgrounds and ethnic groups having to dummy down a resume, take lower paying jobs to feed themselves or family. I see more for rent signs than I see listings for jobs. Now maybe the jobs that are hiring that I don't and many work in. Fast food, retail, and cooks. Other jobs that are paying minimum wage or just above it.

I at one time frowned upon men and women going back home to live with their parents. Especially men! Why can you not live on your own? I have come across a sleuth of men that have gone back home to their parents, family member, friend or significant other. Now those who had to leave their significant others went to family members homes. I am speaking of men that are from their twenties to their fifties! Some of these men or women parents are on SSI or disability! So while they are barely making it now their expenses go up because of the family member moving in or whomever they are assisting. Of course if we are blessed to have someone come in that does help pay the bills that you are not trying to kick out because they are not helping! Let me step back and take a break, because I have worn myself out already!

The economy is hard on everyone, for me I see so many celebs and a lot of out of work actors. Performers of all kind have taken a back seat in this economy and are having a hard time making ends and are constant touring of some sort to keep bills paid. This Speak On It is not for the super wealthy or rich. But even they are feeling this rash of economic change themselves!

So it hurts me to see people who do not even try to do for themselves with whatever we have here to assist us and take from those who have and are striving to make it. There is no method to their madness and their madness to their methods are all misconstrued! I am also livid at the people who have had opportunity after opportunity and just now are trying to do better and have lived their lives with no ambitions, goals nor work ethics majority of their lives. Now they are in deeper need. Is it fair that those who are striving have to be constantly giving holiday bonuses (assisting with money) to keep them and their families going? What part of the game is this? When do we grow up and see things for what they are, or should I say have been for quite sometime now.

Again close your eyes and imagine a world where we are under rule, mass hysteria. Where they have to the Army, Navy and troopers to guard and have us living under “Marshall Law” so even though we are all striving and going through it. The madness to the method who are making ends meet and hoping that ends will meet are in deep thought and have a method of what is needed to be done. But still it is quite disturbing and maddening due to the angst and severe emotional distress.

Once again I am livid at our current situation at the lazy that don't see nor pay attention to the goings ons of the world. For those who are mad at the wrong thing and the wrong people. Not appreciative to what they have and who they have. How money is taking away from those who love. How selfishness has grown deep and rampid. How crime has increased and restlessness plagues our cities and towns.
