Because they want to create an artificial demand for illegal alien labor?

This affects disproportionately small business, many of whom which can’t react as well to these kinds of crisises.

Government hates small business.

There are two-year olds surrounded by masks and social distancing who may never learn to really recognize facial expressions or form normal social bonds.

There are kids in Junior High School who will be socially awkward and isolated far above the previous national rate.

There are kids in High School and College who will never learn to work in groups.

There are young adults who will be resentful that they can’t sit on a couch their whole lives, and who will never develop anything like a real work ethic.

The fallout from this social experiment/power grab will be with us for decades.

I'm not blaming individuals for taking the money. Who WOULDN'T take free money to sit on the couch, no strings attached? No, this is purely the government's fault, and it began with Trump and the GOP.

I.m sorry, but I can't excuse the individuals sucking off the government teet and loathing in their newfound dependence at the expense of their fellow man. Those who Refuse to Work shall also Refuse to EAT!.

We should ABOLISH Welfare and the Food Stamp Program and put up a Soup Kitchen on every corner that needs one,

The media follows the revolutionary narrative. If something is not in the narrative, it doesn’t make the news.

The company I work for has 500+ Factory openings right now - Minimum for floor sweepers is $16 per hour with full benefits after 30 days.

No one is even applying - not even drug addicts or felons.

We could receive a $2000 bonus for every new employee we recruit who lasts 90 days on the job. So far no one has claimed the bonus.

1) Because they are paid to lie.
2) Because they think it will destroy the country faster.

large numbers of small independent businesses are a major threat to fascist governments, because a small number of oligarchs are who own all the entire economy are extremely easy to control ... all it takes is a couple of small sticks and several bunches of carrots and the oligarchs are quite content to join in league with fascist governments ... and that is EXACTLY what is happening right now here in the U.S. ...

Spot on! Small businesses are notoriously hard to control and pickpocket. Govzilla hates them especially for that reason.

BTW, that “if vaccinated” 0.0001575% value is nothing more than a projection based on 95.5% vaccine efficacy.

Absolutely AGREE. Sick to death of the gubmit taxing me on my measly Social Security, if I work yet. Yes.... I still want to work. It's fun.

Also, you read Basement Joe is hiring LOTS of IRS dudes and dudettes to ensure we all get audited. Back to the Lois Lerner nose in the air days.

We need to start fighting back, folks.
