The desire for this person's economic security is not being met because they have a student debt that needs to be payed off along with a mortgage. This person is clearly educated with work experience and still does not have economic security. A more fair situation would be to have jobs for all or to not have to pay as much money for college. The reason this person may not have economic security is because they are using their money to pay off a student debt which unfortunately, the college degree is not paying off. You would think that since this person is educated and seems very experienced in the work force that they would be able to support themselves but that doesn't seem to be the case. I chose this image because it is scary knowing that right now I am working so hard to get into college and who knows if that college degree will actually pay off later.

This person is unemployed and cannot find a job. This person can't even afford college to receive a degree which would probably help this person find a job. A more fair situation would be to offer more financial aid to make college cheaper or to give everyone an equal opportunity to receive education to help people get jobs later. This person is so young and doesn't think they have anything to live for. It doesn't seem like they are motivated to do anything because they really can't anymore. If no jobs are hiring and they aren't qualified for any that are, what is there left to do? I chose this image because it is a scary thought. How young this person is and how unsure they are on what to do from here. 

This person's desire for economic security is not being met because she doesn't know if she will be able to afford college with all the medication and treatment she may need to help her diabetes. A more fair situation would be to have health insurance for everyone, or to give everyone an equal opportunity to go to college to receive an education. If she doesn't end up going to college it is going to be even harder to find a job and support herself along with the extra expenses to take care of her diabetes. This girl looks very young and the expenses of her diabetes is already taking over her life. She wants to be able to attend college but doesn't know if she can pay for it let alone pay for her insulin. I chose this image because it is really sad to think of girls my age that may not have college in their future. And having diabetes isn't something she can help, she was just born with it and is unable to escape it.
