I am a taxpayer with a Juris Doctorate Degree and have been unemployed for over 2 years now despite my daily efforts to gsin employment. I feel the American Dream is denied to me because of age, and language barrier. I love in California and many jobs require Spanish despite this country's primary language being English.. JOBS SPECIFICALLY TARGETING SENIORS AND INDIVIDUALS UNEMPLOYED OVER 2 YRS SHOULD BE CREATED BY GOVT MANDATE - SOMETHING AKIN TO CETA (The Comprehensive Employment Training Act) under a previous President.
Why is this important?
I have been unemployed for over 2 years, and cannot find job despite my fervent desire and abiity to work. My optimism that America will take care of its citizens is waning. Individuals, whether born and raised in America, who live in San Diego, CA and speak Spanish but have much less education than me can readily obtain employment, while I suffer from lack of employment because my primary language is English and I do not speak spanish as required by numerous job announcements. Also, I believe I am discriminated against because of my age. I am 55 years old.
