      XPost: tx.guns, tx.general, alt.guitar.amps       XPost: alt.politics.democrats       From: None@None.org              Permanent closures now account for 55% of all closed businesses since       March 1.              With Republicans in Congress intent on drastically reducing aid for       unemployed Americans and altering the Paycheck Protection Act in the       next coronavirus relief bill, workers across the country are rapidly       losing hope that they will ever be able to return to their jobs,              AP-NORC found that while 78% of workers who were furloughed or laid off       in the early days of the pandemic believed in April that they’d be able       to return to work eventually, just 34% are optimistic about their       prospects now. Just 18% have already returned to their jobs, and 47% say       they no longer believe their old jobs will be available ever again.              -----------                                   Just the numbers :              ---              340 Golf games.              $350m spent on golf travel              1/5th time on vacation              140,000 dead              3,500,000 infected              20,000,000 unemployed              600,000 private businesses closed              3,000,000 evictions              1,000,000 home/business foreclosures              $3T to added debt              $$$BB in lost revenue              $150B welfare payments to farmers 3/yr              220 criminal indictments              50 convictions              24 - missiles launched ny NK              10+ Prison convictions              5 - love letters sent to Kim Umg              1 impeachment              Did I miss anything ?              ====              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
