I was just thinking as I was reading your post where you mention that there are no jobs in your community...How many other communities here in the US all tell the same story. You can drive all around this land and find relics of "what we used to make". How sad.

A number of years ago we visited Baltimore (before we wound up living there) and took a ride on an oyster boat in the harbor that was run by one of the historical societies. As we sailed along the guide pointed to this old building or dock and would say well.."here's the ABC building..they USED to make widgets here..and here's the XYZ dock and they USED to bring in flour & coal here"...and so on and so forth. It's really pretty sad how little we are actually doing & making today.
