The kids are home
The parents are home
The schools are still DELIVERING lunches to those kids.
That is where your tax money gets wasted in your school systems.
They are using the full sized buses in N Nevada to make those deliveries.
IF you can afford your cell phones & your SUV’s, you CAN FEED YOUR OWN KIDS !!!

It’s not about genuine physical poverty. It’s all about entitlement poverty. Entitlement poverty means you should never have to give up the big screen TV, the $300/mo cable services, the unlimited data smart phone, or the second car payment.
Not if you're used to that. It becomes like soft leather - comfortable and something you don't want to give up.
There's already been some people in local essential businesses that have started to call more people back. I expect there there will be some that will not want to go back as they're making more staying home than working at the job.
I'm aware of one local business that called a couple of employees back but they said no. Even though the company modified work spaces to maintain social distancing and employees *already* wear PPE due to the nature of the work. The employees got dismissed.
When unemployment runs out, I think they are going to be struggling to find employment at the rate they were making previously. The company filled the vacant positions within one week.
