If I own a business with 9 employees, plus myself on payroll....you are asking me to pay for ‘leave’ for 9-10 persons....and that request would most likely come on top of declining revenue in my business due to the effects of the virus & how quickly it is spreading.
I certainly cannot afford to pay 9 others when they are NOT working, and if they are NOT working, my business would likely have to close. IF I could run the business by myself, I wouldn’t need 9 employees, would I???
So-—I go bankrupt ‘paying for leave’ and then, there is NO JOB for anyone to come back to when the virus problems subside. I MIGHT be able to work just for myself-—who knows?
This is another attack by the Dems on small business & none of them seem to realize how many cogs on the wheel are the small businesses they re trying to bankrupt.
I was self-employed, doing bookkeeping for as many as 19 businesses. Going to a client as little as once a month-—or as often as 2-3 times a week. I got exposed to alot of people, and I would have had to ‘self-quarantine at home if I were still carrying that many clients.
I am down to one client in my retirement-—and I sent back his bookkeeping & year end forms in January-—for the 50th YEAR I have done his books. Sure love him for his loyalty.
Forcing businesses of ANY size to pay for employees having to stay home will bankrupt a large portion of the country. But- Since I never heard of a single Democrat who ever owned their own business with success, I am not surprised by their outright plans for stealing a business owner blind.
Even Jimmah Carter—who inherited a peanut farm—managed to file it for bankruptcy every 7 years like clockwork.
No, he's a blogger. He's asking you to click on his blog.

I wouldn't do business with anyone who uses "ALOT" in that way.
You're probably not very good at whatever you do.
"ALOT" indeed.
