And you wonder why the President is pondering Easter as a start up date.
Used to be that for employees to qualify for unemployment insurance benefits the company had to have paid in. Is that still the case?
See we are all in the same situation, but some of us have a rainy day fund......
From Woody Guthrie’s dong Do Re Mi....
Don’t swap your old cow for a car,
You better stay right where you are,
Better take this little tip to you from me.
‘Cause I look through the want ads every day
But the headlines on the papers always say:
If you ain’t got the do re mi, boys, you ain’t got the do re mi,
Why, you better go back to beautiful
Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Georgia, Tennessee.
California is a garden of Eden, a paradise to live in or see;
But believe it or not, you won’t find it so hot
If you ain’t got the do re mi.
Giving block grants to Dem governors,who are inept crooks, would be a huge mistake.
IIRC Cali is running a big surplus...don’t give them a dime.
It is??? To whom?
“Given the extraordinary number of applications received recently, as well as the expectation that claims will continue to increase over the coming weeks, the Legislature should anticipate that first benefit payments will take much longer than 21 days,” the report states. “Similar delays occurred during the Great Recession.”!
Well, DeBlasio was just on Fox, calling for the government to commandeer all industry in the U.S. and to mobilize the military.
He wants communism now I guess.
If the economy remains shut down and a depression...or even a dark age...ensues, then I guess we will get communism, or one of its cousins, by default.
We might lose a couple million and see the health care system overwhelmed. With an American collapse...it’s economy keeps Western Society intact...we will not only lose at least that many lives, maybe many multiples of that many lives when our cities turn into violent Hell-zones and many different civil wars break out. Poverty with no chance, no hope , no food, no homes and no supply chain creates violence writ large. And the precious health care system won’t work then either.
And with an America with no economy and in violent civil conflict, how long until the communist Chinese become our saviors? They are willing to sacrifice not millions, but hundreds of millions if necessary, in order to become the one sole superpower on Earth. They can, and they will. Ready to become a ward, or a slave, to your Chinese masters? Kill off our economy and you will get the opportunity.
Last I heard California had a $9B surplus.
I’m telling you San Francisco is staggering.
Not from the virus but the response.
We’ve had no deaths.
Surely none of these claims are fake.
The Democrats are going to try to use this crisis to implement Perma-Unemployment Benefits. They don’t want people going back to work.
That’s why the President is so gung-ho on the Easter deadline. Once you start (and the longer) you keep handing out the bennies from Uncle Sam, the harder it is to take them away.
Let me see, you shut everything down and expect no dramatic increase in unemployment????
