 I can't. But then again, I've always had a job available. I had
 the good luck to get into work when jobs were plentiful. People
 who graduated from what ever level of school they finished at,
 high school or college, as of 2001 or later, have never known a
 single good economy year in this country their entire lives in
 the workforce.

 IN the late '60s and the late '90s we did, and occasionally
 inbetween times, but not since 2001.
