hi...just a thought or two on the employment issue I have seen in many articles lately. People not going back to work because of the unemployment paying more than if they work. Probably a bit of truth in that, but here is what I see as I talk to people. They dont want to wear a mask for 8 hours,also needs to be kept in mind. Also, if a person works, they have to note it on their weekly unemployment and, like my son that DID go back to work during the last ease of lockdowns, the governor simply locked down again, he lost his job again, and had to get back in line for unemployment, which sets you back with no income for like 10 weeks. Many dont go back to work, because they are afraid the governor will just close everything down a week later and they are screwed. Just sharing other reasons why people are not going back to work. Not because of being lazy, they are just protecting their weekly income. Masks and closing, then opening, then closing the economy are two big reasons also...k, thats all. Happy mothers day to all those great moms out there.
