It is a horrible time my family and I might not be able to provide for each other much longer people are losing houses and money our neighbor now lives on the streets.I am scared really scared because I dont want lose my house or my money. I walk on the streets to see young people holding up signs saying for help. I see woman with babies and young children. I dont like it, i wish someone would do something about it.
