-_-_This week_-_-

This week has defiantly had it's ups and downs, ups being the surprise twelve out of twelve on a quiz in our finance class, and downs being poor grades on a quiz or homework. There is only one this that stands out the most this week. That would be  the upcoming waffle party. I have always been caught eating in class, but now I'm actually allowed to eat in class. Last time I had a "party" at school, two teachers were fired, not even kidding. It was at my old grade school. To celebrate Christmas, two teachers had a Christmas party and handed out food, drinks, and the whole class was spent watching movies. This was the reason why the new principle fire the two teachers. She said "They had been using class time in noneducational ways", when in reality, they were just showing a couple of pre-teenagers Christmas spirit.

I know this isn't like any of my normal blogs, but the whole party things just brought back memories that I thought had to be shared.

-_-_ Common Problems in Virginia's Market _-_-

Trading occurs daily in Virginia. Everything from clothing and toiletry's, to natural resources that are crucial to our survival. Problem go by unnoticed here however; problems like miscalculation, and missing information, but some of these problems don't go unnoticed. The State Corporation Commission’s Bureau of Insurance has identified hundred of these slip's and misses and listed them in the Document below. These problems occur in just about every industry in the state, including the automobile industry.One of the biggest problems in this economy would be failing to document individual risk premium modifications. This document should always be available, and kept current. If it's kept secretive or not documented at all, than how will that individual be able to access it? He/She won't be able to. How this problem can be solved is far beyond my comprehension, but more about this and the hundreds of other problems with the market of Virginia can be found at :   https://www.scc.virginia.gov/boi/co/mkt_conduct/pc_prob.pdf

-_-_Unemployment Rate of Virginia_-_-

Being a resident of Virginia myself, it has come to my attention that the difficulty level of getting a steady job has risen. I'm not only saying this because I've had a very hard time trying to find myself a job, but because Virginia's economic problems make the unemployment rate more visible than ever before. According the the Virginia Employment Commission, the unemployment rate of Virginia has past the seven percent mark during February of 2009 making this the highest its been since 1992. Now being February of 2014, that number could have risen to almost double of what it was in 2009. In my opinion, I don't think that our local and state government are doing enough to lower this number. In fact, I think that they argue over the situation more than they try to resolve it.

This is the first blog of the one and only McDemoRs. Who is this mysterious figure? Only a small amount of people will ever know. To everyone else, to the world, I will remain a mystery. Before you begin thinking about what you just read, here's a little disclaimer. This is not one of those old radio shows where I walk around in the dark telling story's about how Mrs. Nezbit is not as faithful a wife as she appears to be, poor Mr. Nezbit. No this will just a blog full of random things.
