Clayton, MO 63105 Dear Senator Blunt: In class we are studying the Constitution and how each citizen's rights are protected. It is essential for all citizens to participate on important issues, or to explain their own opinions for our democracy to work. Therefore, I would like to discuss why we should help our unemployed veterans. Unemployment happens to everyone, it occurs when someone is out of work and cannot find a job. More than 197 million people globally were out of work in 2012. Out of all those that are employed, 10 percent of them were veterans. Veterans come back from war, or serving time in the military and it is hard for them to find a job because there are certain skills that veterans are …show more content…
The more we do not hire the unemployed for their abilities the more likely we are to become bankrupt.
We should help our veterans; we should not turn our back on them even if they are unemployed or have a disability. Veterans are unemployed, and it is hard for them to get a job. All the skills that they have learned in the military do not always go with the skills they need for the work force. As Americans we should want to help the unemployed, we should not turn our backs on our fellow Americans. The unemployed all need a fair shot to get a job. Employers need to realize that unemployment does not affect someone’s strengths or abilities. As a country our main priority should be getting people back to work. The unemployment rate for veterans is higher than the unemployment rate for those that are not veterans. There were 6.9 percent of veterans unemployed in October 2012. This rate is the same as it was in 2011. As Americans we should want to help make this rate for unemployment go down. Employers should want to focus on what an employee can do, not what the employee cannot do. Employers should want to make jobs that the disabled are able to do. We as Americans should help all the …show more content…
This act provided tuition, subsistence, books and supplies, equipment, and counseling services for veterans to continue their education in school or college.
The Readjustment Benefits Act of 1966 extended these benefits to all veterans of the armed forces, including those who had served during peacetime. The Servicemen’s Readjustment Act of 1944 and The Readjustment Benefits Act of 1966 provided many benefits to veterans.” We should do a program something like The 1944 Servicemen’s Readjustment Act or The
Readjustment Benefits Act of 1966 to help our veterans, if we do not already. We could come up with a new act for our veterans, we could call it the 2014 Give Back Act. We should help our veterans to get their General Education Development (GED), if they do not already. We should help them make money for themselves and for the economy. We should help them pay for medical and housing bills. Solving unemployment is a big problem, but if we take this problem small parts at a time then we can solve it. Instead of judging we should help our veterans; we should not turn our back on them even if they are unemployed or have a disability. We could look at this simply as a problem as veterans
