Today's Economic Problems

I believe people are responding perfectly. Everyone is coming together and in most instances everyone has someone to lean on. There aren't too many people who have nowhere to go and most people have things figured out. My family is perfectly fine. Both of my parents make quite a bit of money, my dad being an engineer and my mom a registered nurse. My parents are kind fo the ones that hold up the rest of my family.
Since my immediate family isn't in any economic trouble we have been able to help alot of my relatives. My uncle who has always been in construction is now out of a job because of the recession. He has had a tough time getting another job and he is actually planning to go to the Virgin Islands with my other aunt and uncle to do construction there. So for now we are supporting him and letting him stay in our house in hope that he can make some money to get over the the Virgin Islands where construction is still booming. My aunt and uncle who are also in a bad financial situation are also trying to get to the Virgin Islands to make some money. They might also have to move in if they can't continue to pay the rent on their house. These situations have an effect on my family, but it's really no big deal.
