As some of you know I work in the Family support division for the state of Ky, are business is BOOMING, with all the layoffs and shutdowns, people that have never applied for Gov benifits are coming in, with the high cost of food and fuel a lot of working class are strugling. Another factory in our area is letting 400 go by Oct, so I have job security but have not had a decent raise in several years.1% does not get it, so myself I have been not able to fish or do things that I normally do as it has pinched me somewhat, due to my salary has not increased with the times as our leaders in the Ky senate and congress seem they are more deserving of a raise than the workers, they get a 5% every year and we get nothing and when we do they raise our ins costs, but not the legaslatiors. We actually have more clients than ever before and it is rising fast, and these are not your regular never worked never will good for nothings, these are the ones that have worked all their lives and now have no job and their uib is maxed out. But a least I have a job now, but now we have heard rumors that our jobs could be in jepordy as that are considering outsourcing to privite co's. Oh by the way the factory that is letting 400 go is moving to Mexico. They have been here for over 30 yrs.
