Wrong. This is by design from the Democrats. It looks like the playbook of the nazi's between WWI and WWII. If you pose yourself as the savior to people begging for help, they'll do anything for you — that's exactly what the Democrats want: desperate, beholden, useful idiots.
…and FEW companies give "covid19 pay". I've heard that Amazon does…. but I'm not seeing it anywhere else (in north Florida). I worked for Lowe's Home Improvements and now BigLots and have not seen anything other than minimum wage (now 9$ish) or a bit higher. Might be another reason for folks to NOT go to work in public?
wow so this is build back better LOL.
Another point needs to be made. I personally know of about 300 people who lost their high paying jobs at a particular company. That company has not recalled ANY of them, yet remains open for business with a skeleton crew. Those workers cannot be expected to go back to work for less than they are making under benefit and MUCH less than they were making in their actual field. Yeah, Mickey-D's is hiring. But SKILLED labor isn't interested. Reasonably. The point is not what you think. The left set out to destroy small business and the average citizen's livelihood. They have succeeded thus far.
Also, NONE of this was accidental nor incidental. BY DESIGN.
