Mayor Bill de Blasio admitted Thursday that the Biden administration’s generous jobless benefits are hindering the return of employees to work as businesses try to reopen from COVID-19 shutdowns.

“I think there’s an issue there,” Hizzoner acknowledged when asked at his daily briefing how he plans to rev up the city’s economy again if workers find it more lucrative to stay home than return to work.

“And I think what you’re going to see is more and more people taking jobs because the unemployment is going to run out soon,” he said.

WTF?

It’s the way of Communism, Comrade.

I think Wilhelm is getting more of the public dole than his needs warrant.

I am getting so many calls it’s unbelievable.

I have 3 contracts right now

I promised them all a minimum of 20 hours per week but I could easily do more than 2 full time jobs right now.

I have for the first time ever started just telling people no I can’t even consider anything else.

Yeah, that's it, it's the jobless benefits, not that he among others shut down the economy.

There are businesses that are turning away work, and not just gun and ammo manufacturers, and there other others sucking wind because Globalists like Kaiser Wilhelm Deblasio shut down the economy to get rid of President Trump.

Well someone should tell Joe, because he said that he’s not really hearing anything like that.

It’s not the money for me. It’s the demand that I get the non vaccine. Have been turned down for 2 jobs now because I refuse to be a guinea pig.
