[Unemployment] Editorial

Rovnost Ludu, September 2, 1908

A man drowned himself after being unemployed for more than six months. A men shot himself after not being able to find lodging. A married couple were desperate because the man could not obtain a job and she was very sick, so in sheer desperation she poisoned the children and shot herself. This news was taken from the "Slovak Progress" newspaper on August 20th, 1908.

We have only the Republican Party to blame for these tragedies. The papers having all these suicides listed on one side have a lot of good things to say about the Republicans on the other side of the paper. Is this not then against the Bible's teachings?
