That "sounds" hopeful but I don't have any fund and know-how knowledge. I might go for entrepreneurship way but it will also require lots of preparation in terms of ideas, funds and technical know-hows.
A lot of know-how is learned on the job. What are the jobs? Well, look and see what your day-to-day looks like and if there’s a service you could provide to make it better.
If you’re commuting 2+ hours a day buying a bus and helping other commute for $ could be a start :-). All just ideas, though.
Also, in terms of funds, I understand that can be a constraint especially if you can’t finance things. You can always try to work and band with your community to solve problems. Group funding is always in option.
> Often if there’s high unemployment there’s a window to be the job maker.
How so? On the one hand, there's plenty of unemployed, desperate people, so you can probably get them as employeed for very cheap - but, on the other hand, people are in dire economical condition, so it's hard to sell them anything. I guess, producing stuff for the international market could work well though.

Not everything is about money or paying for things.

Buying and selling things is a very American construct and tells like 1/4 of the story when it comes to trading.
I grew up in a rural area of the US. Lots of folks are poor but wealthy beyond measure. Bartering goes a long way and only works if you provide a service that is valuable ;-).
