Guess they are not Cretins
Somebody said the Governor ought to send in the National Guard to clean these plants to rid the virus. Don’t know if that is the sort of thing that Nat’l Guard does or not.
There are 26 million unemployed Americans aholes
While I applaud Trump’s action here he should also move the federal government to provide masks and financial support for cleaning to these factories. (If he hasn’t already)
This must have something to do with the President’s action.
Smithfield Foods is owned by the Chinese-based WH Group. The company, which is known as Shineway Group outside of Asia.
The Unions should be doing something.
They make more if they are laid off...thanks to the insane stimulus bill.
The plant, roughly 25 miles southwest of Lincoln, employs about 2,000 people.

They don’t have enough job openings, even if they fire the 50 that walked out.
I wonder how many lies that sentence contains. No media coverage of the walkout, eh?
...which Republicans opposed when it gave more money to workers to go on unemployment than to continue working. The media slammed them for being heartless. I think that the Repulicans could see the campaign ads in their heads.
Including the ability to stay home if you were fearful of getting the Corona virus was a second mistake.
The Unions probably are doing something ... just maybe not something to keep the businesses open.
Cancel the panic? Must-read thread counters Tyson’s claim that ‘the food supply chain is breaking’
I don't suppose Eric left out the part about the catering truck in the parking lot...
.
Heh, heh. Nice catch.
A USDA meat plant should have everything there to disinfect everything. There are tons of requirements. I’m sure they steam the whole place on a regular basis especially before their quality audit.
The problem is making sure none of the workers going back are infected.
