11. My cousin teaches in Marietta-- very sad
I have a cousin who teaches in Marietta and things are tough. It's unspoken, but all the teachers know that if you want your students to have supplies, it falls on the teacher to provide them. Lack of proper education is, of course, only going to make things harder on the next generation in the workplace.

Historically, the western part of Ohio has always depended on industrial jobs and there are none to be had. Even people lucky enough to find a service industry job aren't making enough money to provide for their families. These are people who are used to working very hard to make a living and now it is virtually impossible to do so. Very sad...
