So I guess that's it? With a whimper not a bang? The extra

$600 unemployment stops today. My income will drop to $220 a week. I'm 60, taking care of my spouse and myself. My job is gone and not coming back. I'm in a hot city, no one is hiring. We're short of an early retirement by a year or so. Without extra help there is no hope of making it out alive. We will be wiped out and homeless.

I'm beyond stressed and frightened.

I'm one of 25 million stories.
