More who work in "essential" businesses are calling in sick
More who work in "essential" businesses are calling in sick, maybe whether they are or not. With C-19 hysteria at a fever pitch due to gov't/media fear porn, what worker is not afraid of catching the virus? Amazon workers are refusing to work, stating their workplaces are dirty and unsafe, with some going on strike (forget 2 day delivery). Those who deliver packages to the locked-down are doing the same, and are demanding more in tips. Strikes may soon happen everywhere.

Now, with laid off workers soon to get $600/week in non-taxable stimulus money (added on top of their UC), those out-of-work and locked-down like sheep could wind up getting as much $1000 per week, depending on how generous their state UC benefits are.

Most of those working in grocery stores and warehouses may not make anywhere near the $600, yet they pay taxes on it. They are not only working for nothing, they are losing money by working. There will be cries to: Please lay me off!

Once those still working come to realize this, who knows what happens next? Will they be ordered to work at the barrel of a gun? This is what happens when you combine lockdowns with excessive government largesse. There can be no such thing as a TOTAL LOCKDOWN, unless we all choose to starve. If they only knew it, those still working are in the driver’s seat, and have the rest of us by the balls.
