Oh yeah I know that. I didn't indicate it was. It is the failing economy there that what would have prompted this job for sure. But I was out of work for 5 months last year so I take the work that is offered to me. There is no way I am turning down work to become unemployed again. I am happy to do it and be one of the FEW that benefit.

Not doing it would be like turning down work in bars or venues that serve alcohol because some of our patrons are alcoholics. That wouldn't make sense. People make their own choices. None of us would let that influence our choice of gigs we accept to play. Sad as it is that is life.
