    We cannot legislate morality.  Our nation is striving to try to fix the problem
    of unemployment, but our current economic state reflects the choices that we
    have personally made.  There is no law
    that can be passed that will make people make non-prejudicial business
    decisions.  We are so busy about blaming
    one another versus trying to put together a realistic plan that will put people
    to work and generate a recovery to our economy. 
    My advice for the unemployed is try to become self-employed or try to
    find an employer who looks at the unemployed without prejudice.  I say let the employer advertise.  Why create false hope.  The employer is not going to hire the
    unemployed.  There are moral people in
    this country.  Find a moral employer.  Our recovery will not come from Washington or
    from corporate America, but from the hearts of moral citizens who strive to do
    the right thing and not only for themselves, but our country.
