Our generation, old now, began jobs early and worked hard. We had to, we were hard up. We studied hard too, wanting a more prosperous life. We married young, stayed married, had kids; we saved and bought small houses and tried to mind our own business, not expecting someone else to pay our bills. We established good schools and expected discipline and proficient teachers; we relied on friends and relatives for help. We understood the power of government could not be trusted; we fought wars that should not have happened and won. Yes, there was failure. Without it there can be no success. But we did not expect life to be fair.

You are responsible only for yourself so keep trying. (You cannot be responsible for that which you do not control.)  Many rsn posts may need to take care of themselves. Good luck
