Perennially Insecure

– Eric Rambo, Madison, WI

I am a former faculty member (sociologist), now a well-employed but perennially insecure consultant. I’m about to turn 50 and worry what would become of me if I were unemployed once again. Last time I was only 40. Moreover, I think I see the promise of an organization such as this as a counter-weight to economic forces in the society working against the interests of every working and non-working person — professional and otherwise. It may not be a union you are creating but I imagine it serving some of the same purposes. AARP is an excellent model.
