Lessee, cost of shutting down on one hand, cost of insurance payout for corona death on the other. Simple math. How else the Perdue family gonna buy all those foreign cars and that second home, the one on the lake?

Don’t worry Perdue family, Moscow Mitch will make sure that your insurance doesn’t have to payout anything if one of your peasants dies.

General strike. Show them exactly how important workers are. This isn't going to change without bold action. Time to finish off the Robber Barons.

I think so many people are going to get sick the general strike will happen just by people lying in bed, unable to move.

I have Braums, Super Target, Albertsons nearby. And Wamart, but I don't go there. I'll tell the nearest Kroger why I'm leaving, too.

Fuck these guys. I give you the following:

Everyone, white collar, blue collar. Protect and contain or no work. That is what a general strike is. Rather Moscow Mitch and gang want to pass legislation to protect companies from employee lawsuits. Nothing makes a capitalist squeal more than hitting his pocket book.
