2 months anywhere near Denver (and jobs), unless in a dangerous urban area around MLK Blvd.
Unemployment and "stimulus" payments do not come even close to making up their losses. People at the low end of the economy are not going to catch up.
Government caused this. Government is making it worse by sponsoring massive inflation to pay for those "stimulus payments". Prices for everything have already started rising.
