In my almost six decades of employment here I've paid unemployment taxes in both Pennsylvania and New Jersey and in all that time I've collected once - and it lasted ONE DAY.Yesterday I told that to someone who replied that the money should go to people who need it - and I told that person to leave. .Now as a senior the state has forced me to close and sign up .And lay off employees .This would be better if I could go race but even that has been taken away. After almost two weeks of sitting in my office bored I can't stand it - I want to open the window and shout out that famous movie line - "I'm mad as Hell ........you know the rest.
All that plus I'm tired of sitting down to dinner every night and listening to our Presidents 'Gloom and Doom' on TV. When will it end ?????
