A homeless man from ohio who would appreciate a job doing voiceovers.

Ted Williams, a former radio announcer for 53 years that ended as a vagrant after his addiction to drugs and alcohol, attracted millions of people on YouTube after the Columbus Dispatch newspaper hang a video on Monday asking him next to a Street in Columbus, Ohio, using radio imitation 

On Thursday, Williams had appeared on news programs like "The Today Show" to talk about a flurry of job offers you should use their voice as one with the Cleveland Cavaliers basketball team and one with the food manufacturer Kraft and of instant success. 


Today on Spanish television Channel Antena3 showed poor people waiting at the Supermarket doors at nightfall to collect the food thrown out, some often in date. They were also using social shelters to eat it was reported. The report stated that 19.7%* of the Spanish population are living in poverty on 6.000 euros or under a year and that of those 7% are living on 3.000 euros or under. 


The trouble is politicians have big salaries and expense accounts and do not have their feet on the ground so are, and never will be aware of what poverty is like. Usually who gets to govern has money to campaign.

Yesterday it was reported on the British media that whilst central and local government employees had their salaries frozen the average pay increase for the directors of the FTSE 100 public companies had increased their salaries by 100% (and probably frozen dividend increases to share holders or stopped them) We want more equality in the world. 

* this is equal to the current unemployment level in Spain
