Or that unemployment checks are going down drastically.
Well said.
Of course. Who wouldn't?
‘it doesn’t matter if you virus-free if you can’t feed your family’
this poll will make a number on this very forum beam with joy...
‘Here in Georgia, I keep hearing that the governor is trying to kill people by telling them they can get haircuts.’
some clown went on FB and posted on his blog that Georgia was opening up death...and I was shocked by the affirmative commentary he got...
Not necessarily.
There are plenty of male “Karen’s” to be found on Facebook.
There’s a particular one that’s so obsessive, that I’m almost convinced that he’s a paid Chinese troll bot.
Naturally, he’s a Demonrat.
Did you happen to see that on Facebook?
One of the most obnoxious male Fearbro’s on an Alabama based Facebook news page has been posting that same tripe.
“Even most FREEPERS were willing to surrender their liberty in the face of this idiocy.”
These idiots scream louder and longer than everyone, so they naturally get the most attention. This place is infested with Soros trolls and egomaniacal old farts who get monthly annuity or government checks, so as long as they have theirs, they don’t give a crap about anyone.

And there's the rub. By giving everyone state weekly unemployment compensation + the federal $600 per week, there won't be any incentive for millions of workers to go back to work. I'm as conservative as they come, and I'm no fan of government, but the weekly maximum weekly benefit in NJ is $681 (which I would qualify for if laid off) plus $600 from the feds is $1,281 per week (about 1/2 normal earnings)
I live at the shore and my mortgage is paid off. Bills are less than $1,000 per month for taxes, insurances, and all utilities (water, sewer, gas, electric, Direct TV and internet). Its awfully tempting to volunteer to be laid off and enjoy the upcoming great weather months at the Jersey shore. However, I've never collected, and don't want the government handout. I'd rather work and pull my own weight.
Check back around 1 mounth when the summer starts in the northeast states.
‘it doesn’t matter if you virus-free if you can’t feed your family’
that doesn’t seem to be registering with the easily frightened bunch of wimps that populate this country...I have zero hope for these people, or for the future...
‘Why in the world is the administration not trying to educate people on this?’
ask Mike Pence...
The 2nd Amendment is florshing.
‘Women are driving the panic and the sense that we must err on the side of lockdown.’
they are rabid on social media sites; just breathe the slightest hint about reopening the economy, and they start right in with the snarky shit, and it goes down from there...
Exactly. Tell those against reopening there’s no money left in the coffers for unemployment and the companies allowing them to work from home are cutting their salaries in half and see if they don’t join the reopen crowd.
Go Gordon I think that is a truly patriotic stance.
I also could go on unemployment. I choose not to.
I don’t fault folks for legitimately taking their unemployment insurance they paid into and have a claim for.
Stay at home? Get a government check? Democrats are living the dream. Of course they don’t want it to end.
