13. Sure enough, 2007 is when it started for me

Gee, remember the Bush years? How could we forget? I was laid off that year when management was replaced with the right wing job cutters. I have been unable to recover since then, as I sit here unemployed at age 60. I have been recently discriminated against on at least 2 interviews. IE: What year did you graduate from high school? A majority of people that I know that have lost their job, are still not working and the ones that are, are working for peanuts compared to their old salary. The oligarchs are alive and well in this country, and need to be stopped.
