...This, as more than 30 million Americans have filed for unemployment benefits over the past six weeks after state-imposed shutdown orders required “non-essential businesses” to close.

That debate continued on “Fox News Sunday,” with liberal pundit Marie Harf, a former adviser to then-Secretary of State John Kerry, suggesting that allowing some small businesses to open was essentially meaningless.

In response to a statement from host Chris Wallace that, while 66,000 people have died from coronavirus tens of millions have lost their jobs, Harf appeared to suggest that reopening small businesses wasn’t going to produce much in terms of bolstering the economy....

Over 99% of businesses are small.

Harf-snarf's brain is smaller yet.

Imagine this kind of doofus fascist who believes her new contact lenses or the crossing, before the camera, of her pink flabby legs actually means anything except to the only even stupider person in the room...

Of course small businesses are not important now. State governors (mostly Dems) are responsible for that.

Open everything up and small businesses will be important again.

Bistros and Dry Cleaners don’t send lobbyists with bags of cash to Washington DC, so obviously they can’t be too important.

I do not think Marie Harf is essential and if she disappeared of the face of the earth today it would make not one bit off difference to me.

Marie Harf and her higher than thou attitude is a disease worse than covid.

Note to Harfwit: Those so-called essentials are going to find out the hard way just how necessary your non-essentials are.

Who do you think is going to pay for those salaries, health bennies, and pensions.
The unemployed, homeless, out of business??

A simple essential test: Anyone paying income and property taxes since STATES CAN’T PRINT MONEY, bonehead.

“.. liberal pundit Marie Harf, ..”

I think she was referred to as “Harf with the Barf” when she was one of Duh Kerry’s sock puppet mouthpieces.

TOP DEFINITION:

Harfing”:

To say or assert something so patently stupid and preposterous as to generate widespread mockery. Named in honor of State Department Spokesperson Marie Harf.

The State Department Spokesperson was harfing on about how Islamic State jihadists only needed job opportunities in order to give up their evil ways.

(from the article):" ..Marie Harf, a former adviser to then-Secretary of State John Kerry,
suggesting that allowing some small businesses to open was essentially meaningless."

Marie Harf seems to never have had a real working job, other than in politics, and enjoys well-off family connections.
She fails to realize that the US economy is a "service economy"
ever since we off-loaded most of out manufacturing offshore to South East Asia.
To ignore small business is to ignore the backbone of the American economy and the supply chain.
That is why she is a 'Harf wit'.

Small business not important my ass!!! Small business is the job creators of America. Many fail and some succeed. Entrepreneurs put their own money on the line for the chance of riches.

Micheal Dell (of Dell Computors) got his start in his fathers garage. He had a vision and followed it. He today is a multi-billionaire. He employees about 160,000 highly paid employees.

Small business is important. I am glad he is a billionaire. He earned it and gave thousands a job.
