Change for the better

Its sad seeing a lot of people here being laid off, getting into foreclosures and losing their homes and finding out that their american dream has crumbled. The economy here in the US has really nose dived. Pinoys are no exceptions. A lot of minorities are one of the hardest hit. Come to think of it, before they give the jobs to minorities, americans would have to get a shot for the job first. That's the reason why a lot of minorities are in areas where americans dont like the kind of work - we call it dirty jobs. Lets take for example health related field. Taking care of patients, providing hygiene and personal care, and holistically managing every aspect of that individual's care, is something most americans dont like to do. They tend to be on the blue and white collar job areas. But, i think that with the situation happening now, it will change somehow. But what I know, is that that there will always be hope. As the President has said, "change has come" and we are hoping that it will be a change for the better.
