Commonality-The Downfall of America
Chapter 4-Immigration Chaos
The uncommon neighbors that moved into Common Town that came from common and sub-common countries had lots of uncommon relatives. Most of these uncommon relatives were from other common and sub-common countries.
Every one of these uncommon people who worked uncommonly hard needed at least a sub-common lob to feed their uncommon households.
These uncommon people knocked on every door in Common Town to see if someone had a sub-common job they could do. These uncommon people were willing to do those sub-common jobs other common citizens of Common Town would not do.
Mr. John Common watched as the uncommon neighbors bought uncommon cars and built uncommon houses in his neighborhood from the sub-common wages they received for working uncommonly harder than anyone else. He wondered if he was doing something commonly wrong.
John and Mary Common continued working at their common jobs and lived a very hectic common schedule. The Common Twins needed to go to common basketball practice and participated in common soccer. They were transported to common swimming training and they both had a sub-common part time job. The Commons did all this in their one sub-common car.
Hundreds of new uncommon neighbors moved into the Common’s common neighborhood over the next few years and they looked for and found many sub-common jobs that most common people wouldn’t take. Common and sub-common businesses hired these uncommon workers from other common and sub-common countries because they worked twice as hard as the common workers in Common town.
Mr. Common’s job was commonly fine but he wasn’t achieving any of the uncommon goals in his life that he had established many uncommon years ago. He watched as a majority of his new uncommon neighbors from other common and sub-common countries received jobs in his common company. In addition, he had heard that some of them were getting uncommon wages while he and other old time common employees were still getting a measly common wage.
Mrs. Common, who was working a sub-common job, again, was noticing that many of her uncommon female neighbors, who were from other common and sub-common countries, were getting sub-common jobs in her same sub-common profession. She noticed that many of her common friends, who were working the same sub-common job that Mrs. Common worked, were being replaced by these common women who worked uncommonly hard.
One day at their common dinner table Mr. Common, Mrs. Common, and the Twins Common were talking. They discussed their common existence even though they craved everything uncommon. One Common son asked his common parents who had uncommon goals, why he could not have an uncommon car because he was almost sixteen. He wanted the sub-common car so he could drive himself to his sub-common part-time job and date an uncommon girl friend.
John and Mary Common explained to both Common sons that at the moment the Common family only had one sub-common car to transport their common mother and common father to work and to transport them to all of their uncommon extracurricular activities. They did all of this on an almost sub-common wage. They told them that they barely had enough common money to pay for sub-common food for their common family.
Months later as the common family worked their sub-common jobs and drove their sub-common car and ate sub-common food, their common sons graduated from Common High School. By this time their sub-common wages they earned every day was not worth the same amount as it was a few years earlier.
Unfortunately the Common family with their uncommon goals had to tell their common, sons with their own uncommon dreams that they could not go to an uncommon college. Instead, the common parents could only afford for them to go to a sub-common trade school and just maybe they should get sub-common jobs before they go to this sub-common trade school.
In the mean time, Mary Common had an accident at sub-common work. She broke her common leg by doing an uncommon chore at her sub-common job. She could not work at her sub-common job for several common weeks. When she returned to her sub-common job, her sub-common employer told her she was replaced by one of her uncommon neighbors who came from another sub-common or common country. Mary Common was devastated.
The only thing left for Mary and the common family to do was for Mary to go down to the Common Welfare Building and apply for common disability and common welfare. John Common did not like this idea, because he still had uncommon dreams, but he saw no other uncommon choice.
Chapter 5-Unemployment Stampede
The Common family who still had a few uncommon dreams and goals were slowly getting uncommonly discouraged. Their Common Twins could not find a sub-common job in the sub-common economy so they could earn enough money to go to sub-common trade school, and Mary Common still had not received her common disability which she had applied for a common three months earlier.
Mr. Common was getting more commonly unhappy each day because he kept getting uncommon calls at work asking him to pay his uncommon bills on time and he didn’t have the common money to pay his uncommon bills.
Mrs. Common had a very uncommon idea. If she could get common unemployment and the twins could get common unemployment, and then she could get common disability and get common welfare and food stamps then maybe, just maybe she could feed her common family and put common gas in their sub-common car.
John Common who was still working at his common job started to get common pay cuts from his sub-common salary. He went to his common CEO and asked him why he received a common pay cut from his sub-common salary. His common boss told him that the sub-common economy of the country was causing him to have to cut everyone’s sub-common salaries.
Mr. Common was super commonly mad and asked his common CEO how he was supposed to pay his uncommon bills with this type of sub-common wage. He also asked the common boss if he himself took a sub-common salary cut and his common boss said uncommonly, no.
This made John Common very, very super uncommonly mad, but the entire uncommon conversation made the CEO more super, super uncommonly madder. The common boss then asked Mr. Common about his uncommon phone calls he had received at work from John’s uncommon bill collectors. He told John Common that because of those uncommon phone calls he would have to deduct uncommon amounts of money from John’s salary every month to pay uncommon money to Mr. Common’s bill collectors.
At the same time many of the Common’s uncommon neighbors who came from common and sub-common countries, were losing their sub-common jobs because of the sub-common economy. These same uncommon people lost their sub-common jobs because more people from common and sub-common countries came to Common Town and were taking their sub-common jobs at a lower sub-common wage.
These uncommon people, who came from common and sub-common countries to Common Town and lost their sub-common jobs, had to apply for common unemployment. Even though they received common unemployment these uncommon people who came from common and sub-common countries, and who worked uncommonly hard, still knocked on Common Town citizen’s doors to see if they could be hired to work any sub-common jobs.
A few common days later, Mr. Common was still uncommonly mad at his common boss. He watched as his uncommon neighbors from common and sub-common countries lost their sub-common jobs. He thought maybe he would be the next one to lose his sub-common job. That common day, Common went into common work and told his common boss from his sub-common company that before his common boss could let him go from his sub-common job, he would just uncommonly quit.
That day John Common, Mary Common and the Twins Common had an uncommon family meeting. They talked about their uncommon problems like not having enough common money to pay their uncommon bills. They discussed Mrs. Common not receiving her common disability and the Common twin boys not receiving their common unemployment. Common John asked his common family what in this common world should they do to have enough money to commonly eat.
Mary common stood up in their common family meeting and started to uncommonly think. She told her Common family there was only one common thing they could commonly do. They each needed to apply to receive common credit cards so they could commonly eat and pay their uncommon bills.
John Common and the Twins Common commonly agreed.
Chapter 6-Dept Enablement
The Common family sat in their common living room in their common house and watched a 56 inch uncommon flat screen television set. They watched common cable and had uncommon internet service for their uncommon computers. The Common Twins followed their common and sub-common friends on common Facebook on their uncommon computers that they were able to buy with their common credit cards.
Every common day Mr. Common would receive common phone calls on his uncommon smart phone from common bill collectors. When the common bill collectors called Mr. Common would just use his common credit card to pay his uncommon bill. Soon his common credit card companies were calling him every day asking to receive their common payment.
John’s uncommon and sub-common neighbors, who came to Common Town from common and sub-common countries who had lost their sub-common jobs, were trying to figure out how to feed their common children and pay their common bills.
The Common twins visited frequently with the uncommon neighbors who had come from common and sub-common countries. The common neighbors told the Common twins of their uncommon financial situation. One of the Common Twins suggested that they apply for a common credit card to pay for their common food and their common bills.
The uncommon neighbors weren’t’ quite sure they wanted to apply for a common credit card because they still didn’t know how they would pay this common credit card bill. The Common Twins told them just to use their common unemployment check to pay for their common credit card bills. The uncommon neighbors who came from common and sub-common countries thought this common idea was uncommonly great so they applied for a common credit card to help pay their common bills.
Soon the whole neighborhood had uncommon brand new big screen televisions and uncommon cable to watch uncommon television from all over the uncommon world. Other uncommon neighbors were able to buy uncommon cars and uncommon boats with their uncommon credit. The common neighborhood was temporarily very uncommonly happy.
One day the common credit card collector from the common credit card company was in John Common’s neighborhood in Common Town. He visited each common household in Common Town and repossessed all of John Common’s common neighbor’s 56 inch common television sets and he repossessed each brand new uncommon car they had just been uncommonly paid for with common credit.
John watched as the common credit card company’s collector came to his common door. The common credit card collector told Common that he was repossessing his 56 inch uncommon television set. John was uncommonly mad as he asked the common credit card collector why he was repossessing his 56 inch uncommon television set. The common credit card collector told John that they he hadn’t paid his common credit card bill in months. Mr. Common told the common credit card collector that he wasn’t making a common or sub-common salary so how was he able to pay his common credit card bill. The common credit card collector said he didn’t commonly care because Mr. Common owed the money and it was uncommonly past due.
Mrs. Common and the Twins Common cried as the common credit card collector carried their 56 inch uncommon television set out the door. Later in the common day the common credit card collector returned to collect the Common’s uncommon computers and shut down their uncommon internet.
Mr. Common did his uncommon best to keep the common credit card company collector from repossessing his 56 inch uncommon television set. John was so uncommonly mad that the common credit card collector had to call the Common police on John Common. He almost got thrown in common jail at Common Town. Mary Commons stepped in between John and the common credit card collector because John Common wanted to hit the common credit card collector for taking his 56 inch uncommon television set.
John, Mary and the Common Twins were very uncommonly unhappy but at least they still received their common food stamps and they could still commonly eat. So what else was there to commonly do? The Common family, John, Mary and the Common Twins uncommonly ate, all common day and all common night.
