People are about to run out of money (unemployment) and
the Republicans want to cut that off. Supposedly continuing this money
discourages people from working, they say. For many people there is no place to
work. Most people want to work, but with the coronavirus keeping people from
many jobs, such as working in bars, restaurants and a few other public places,
there are fewer jobs available for people to take. The Democrats
are seeking to extend the $600 assistance into next year, arguing it
is necessary to help people who have lost their jobs. The Republicans want
that reduced to
$200. Two hundred in this economy is like nothing. It will do nothing
to keep people afloat. Many people can’t pay their rent. Even with a job it
will take many people time to catch up with their expenses and many people can’t
pay their rent. Pulling that money out now is like pulling the rug out from
under people.
Once again we see the cold-blooded and cold-hearted attitude that Republicans have towards working people.
They simply don’t care if working people can make it or not in this time where
the coronavirus has damaged both people’s health and the health of the economy.
Trump and his ilk don’t care about the welfare of the people. They just care
about themselves and their $millionaire and $billionaire buddies.
