America: a pavement touching nation

I just read an article in the NY Times today about a 41 year old female who was unable to continue to find work. She faces eviction and has to spend much of her time on web sites looking for jobs and work.  Her abilities are as reported to be somewhat above average and she can not even find work as a cashier at a Retail Store.
Is this the way that our nation is to proceed?  Persons who can not pay rent?  Persons who lose their outlets to find enjoyment and pursue the ideal of happiness? 
I realize that we have restrictions on our conditions of employment and of course, there is diffraction of the wealthy when it comes to offering "hand outs" to those who are impoverished.

But lets sit back here for a moment....  Hopes are dashed today and the ultra elite go on challenging the very foundations of democracy by instituting tax breaks and cutting benefits for the most challenged and distrubed and troubled Americans. 

How can being an elite statue involve challenge and troubles when your rent is paid for years and your niceties are plentiful?

Are we a nation of persons touching other people who are touching pavement?
It seems that out nation is on a pathway of distemperate and oblivitating reticule of a purse for the promotion of the American Way of Life.
