When I purchased this classic 1963 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud III, I was doing very well as a computer software developer with over 20 years experience.

NOW, I have been a school janitor for over 8 years because I can not find a job in the computer industry.

There has been much news over the years of employers not being able to find very highly skilled qualified workers in the computer industry. Employers have testified for the need to bring in HB1 foreign workers. Not true at all! Hundreds of thousands of us very qualified US workers can not find “real jobs” and thus our American economy continues to spin downward.
