On the Economy

I've got to ask this question - besides extending benefits - which only affects about 80% of the total amount of this country's unemployed, what's being done to help them? My answer to you - NOTHING! There are unemployed people out there in the heartlands of America who've exhausted their unemployment benefits - as has yours truly! - but I don't hear anyone "trumpeting" our cause. In these days of giving BILLIONS to people who truly don't need or deserve them, what would be so difficult about helping the millions of those who've lost - or are about to lose - their residences or have lost their means of transportation or their ability to communicate with anyone?
