Why not join forces with friends and family who are in the same situation and take turns watching the children while the other parents go to work.
There are many stay home moms that can babysit and allow the children continue their school activities....

Yet they will continue to vote for Democrats, who by and large are responsible for the draconian policies that cause their “financial pain” (as the article calls it).

Adding to the well known fact that the Covid virus is racist.
It seeks out black victims by race./s

NEWS FLASH:
People whose highest ambition in life is to be “a victim”, feel that they are the biggest victims of the pandemic.

We brought our mid-twenties daughter home. She was lucky in that she kept he job but at a reduced salary. We moved her home gave her two room in the house one for an office. She still has to pay for her apartment and uses it occasionally, but we pay for her food and stuff. It has been really good for her and us. I also paid the bills for my two other children on a couple of occasions when they were locked down and could not work. To me that is what a family does, to others it's just my white privilege talking.

tragically, the Left has sent hundreds of billions in relief to other countries and to their rich friends and denied relief to these women

Like many single parents, JoAnn Hargrove has been struggling throughout the pandemic. Her 7-year-old daughter has spent the past year at home, learning virtually. That meant Hargrove, a U.S. postal carrier in Pittsburgh, had to stop working during the week. She's now collecting partial unemployment and working on Saturdays and Sundays, while her mother watches her daughter.

Where is the father of this child?

One of the last things Rush said, is that the establishment (and I would ad the Globalists, and the chi coms) could not stand that President Trump's policies were lifting people out of poverty and into the middle class. So, they concocted this virus. It makes me furious.
