This is yet another story of a U.S. engineer that could not find work for over a year, even as Congress allows foreign engineers to flood into the U.S. job market. (In the week prior to the shooting the state jerked him around about even getting his unemployment check.)
U.S. unemployment is now 10%. Yet congress has done NOTHING to stem the flood of foreign workers into the U.S. Congress has done NOTHING to stem the flow of jobs out of the U.S. President Obama has not addressed either of these key problems all year. Instead they argue about health care plans.
Perhaps if the job market were not flooded with H-1b (and the dozen related visas) willing to do anything to work in the U.S. the employer would have tried to find a suitable position for this engineer rather than terminating him. But the availably of $50k indentured servant engineers is hard to resist – and hard for American workers – both new graduates and people with 20 years of experience - to compete against.
For nine months his gross income was under $900 per month working at Subway. Among his debts was $11,085 in child support. (After the debt exceeds $5,000 it is a felony.) I believe that even bankruptcy court cannot clear a support obligation, nor the civil and criminal penalties associated with the debt.
The U.S. and state legislators did nothing to help this American, and everything to destroy him.
If he had been the female he probably could have obtained spousal support until he was able to find work. But family court rarely awards spousal support to noncustodial fathers, regardless of need.

Jason S. Rodriguez listed his assets at $4,675 and his liabilities at $89,873.31. His 2002 Nissan XTerra with 110,000 miles represented $4,000 of those assets.
He said his monthly income as a "sandwich artist" at a Subway Restaurant in Orlando, where he had worked for nine months, was $890.67, and he listed his monthly expenses at $815.
He faced an $11,085 claim of child support.
Orlando lawyer Charlie Price represented Rodriguez in his case. "It's not that atypical from most everyone I see," he told CNN in a telephone interview. "That's how it is right now. He's a very typical client. Of people that are suffering through the economy right now, there's nothing extraordinary about him ... except that."

Rodriguez told detectives that the company had fired him without cause and had made him look incompetent. He told them he was unemployed for a year and a half before getting a job at a Subway, where worked until recently.
He told them the shop couldn't give him enough hours, and he later filed for unemployment. He expected to get a check recently but when it didn't arrive he blamed Reynolds, Smith and Hills, thinking it was harming his efforts to qualify, police said. He told police he could no longer support his family.
After the divorce, Rodriguez seldom saw his son, but he called last week while the child was at Holloway's house and the boy asked his father why he did not come over, too.
"He said, 'Because I don't have any money. I don't have a job. I don't have anything to eat. When things get better, I'll come see you,'" Holloway said Rodriguez told his son.
