    Over the years, even before now, many people have lost jobs. good reasons, bad reasons.
    ing for everone.
    My brother lost his job in 1957. Absolutly never sought a civilian job. BEGGED his family (me) for money. He got his prized PH.D, unused , from the gov’t Never mentions that. He prefers to seek sympathy, claim injustice, and never, ever tried to work.

    I did not have the priviledge to stay in bed, read newspapers, luxuriate until noon or therabates. I was on the road at 7:30,. He has done good, but without my help, there would be no house, no food

    I am his seiously disabled sister. He did not come to my husaband’s funeral, has ignored me for at least 4 yrs.

    He had 16 cousins, 13 sets of aunts and uncles. His bio speaks to his exreme heterosexual, straighofobia.

    Someday I will write a book about his unbknown side. Right now, I am too sick and too angry. But let it be known that I have info that no one else knows. ,
