Miami's politicians like to believe that the unemployment rate here is about 12 - 14 per cent. I think it's higher as many without jobs simply give up and do not make it into the statistics. There are many new faces in the streets of Miami asking for help. It is a sad situation because without cash, it's impossible to survive in Miami. Some think that these people are just asking for a hand out by mere convenience. I think that they are desperate, and cannot find any employment simply because there isn't any at this time.
I think you are correct, and it is sad to see this.
