It is a sad day when you read the news and you see that a Father kills his family, because he could not find a job and the stress was just to much. This is not a secluded incident this is happening more and more with each passing week.
We need to find a way to prevent this, yes, people are being laid off with each passing day and the stress is overbearing and at times you do feel like there is no end to bad news or bad luck. Intervention is needed , I think it would help if a company would have classes for their laid off workers or a transition counselor, so the shock and panic of not having a job anymore can be dealt with.
Taking the life's of your family is not the answer and no one should ever feel that is the last road to take, have we forgotten how to be compassionate and caring people? Regardless of how big the company is, there are people with feelings and families to be taken care of.
We are bailing out all of the big corporations however we are not doing anything for the common people they talk about bailing out homeowners, well how about people with car notes that are behind and food they can't buy? It is not only homeowners that need help with the way things are today, if you are going to help one set of people then help them all, do not discriminate, just because we do not own homes does not mean that we do not need help.
It gets very tiresome listening to the news night after night hearing about the Homeowners need this and that, it still bothers me since you knew before you signed those loan papers for that house you could not afford it so now everyone wants to cry foul play, I am not saying that there are not some people out there that were taken for a spin with crooked loan companies, however not every single person who purchased a home from 2004 till present were scammed like the media and everyone would like us to believe.
I truly believe that people that are not strong willed, will take the life's of their loved ones thinking that is the easiest way to take care of the situation on hand and it will make everything better, they are not thinking with a clear mind, stress and more then likely depression has set in, I am sure they are showing signs and silently crying out for help, but no one is really listening and that is a shame for all of us.
