Ecclesiasticus 34:22 reads, "He who takes away his neighbor's living slays him; and he who defrauds the laborer of his hire is a bloodshedder."
Biden's cavalier attitude toward the loss of American jobs must be judged according to the biblical standard. The elimination of hundreds of thousands of jobs is a serious matter, and its effects are indeed bloody. Deprived of their jobs and their self-respect, workers are without support and purpose, and it's likely that many will come to harm.
The most recent weekly jobless claims were higher than expected, and consumer confidence fell 11.3% to the lowest level since February. A Forbes columnist predicts recession by early 2022, with some believing we have already entered recession. One industry has been especially hard hit, and not because of the normal business cycle.

I fear the media is having a devastating impact with their non-stop propaganda, and while we’re all getting our wish that the Dems finally eat the crow they’ve been slinging, the media is very adept at deferring blame. I think a red wave is coming in November, yes, but I don’t think we’re going to see “change” in the way we expect.
The Demonrats KNOW a red wave is coming in November and will do everything in their power to stop it. READ THIS:
