I am "essential" now, but when everything is over they will furlough us like nothing had happened. "Good job and bye now". I am a flight attendant working on the frontline since day 0, and still...

It never cease to amaze me, how billionaire find new ways to kill people. Like turning people into greater poverty over a virus that has not reach the top 50 killing virus or diseases. The UN aim is reduce the world population to two billion people. It's a good idea, how bout them dying first?.

"The UN aim is reduce the world population to two billion people."

Let's see some proof, or your statement is bullshit.

The carrying capacity of Earth is much higher than 8 billion. Just not with the current economic systems of fiat currency and authoritarian controls.

UN stated an aim to reduce population, they have no plans for us to see.

I have some friends of mine who work in retail (Macy's, Burlington, exc..) and they've been furloughed from their jobs until their locations reopen.

Welcome to the world of the wealthy and their corporations!!!

People become less valuable as a commodity as the wealthy seek greater profits with the least expense!!!

If you think they care, you are now living within those results!!!

Welcome to the world as it was before the industrial revolution!!!

A new revolution is at hand, will it succeed or will it flourish in the harsh environment created to control us wholesale!!!

Too too many have become to comfortable for far too long, we are now living within those results!!!

It's only the top 1 percent.

I have social security and a part time employment that is considered essential. Because of virus fears the job is "iffy" and up and down right now. I have the most seniority in what I do but yet I have the fewest hours. What will happen? Flip a coin.

If you are earning wages (and perhaps even if you are not) you can expect a "Corona check." I'm counting on mine!

@JustAskMe Counting on mine but just learned today that I do not work again until maybe next Thursday and Friday over a week from now. I have the seniority but they are putting me down in favor a a girl they like. I'm vocal on things but we are non-union so what can I do. Not much.

It is unlikely the tourism based company my wife and I own will be opening for business this year as the main tourism draw in our area are the river boat day cruises, not likely to see a lot of interest in people wanting to crowd onto a boat after this virus. We had planned on expanding to a second location, hiring some staff to help out, that's all off the table now.

Have you applied for small business funds through the CAREact

@SarahSiddons we don't qualify for funding because we are a new business and in any case the amounts involved are so small that it hardly makes a difference. If we were a big corporation then the funds would already be in our accounts but we aren't big and we will just have to tough it out.

I'm disgusted by the consumerism on display right now. All the corporations trying to get on the bandwagon of "helping".

"Buy a Ford and make no payments for 3 months!" and those revolting Lexus ads

political begging too my email is full of ppl running for office begging for money

A local Funeral Home has been sending Flyers to the homes of people who purchase breathing supplies.

@BitFlipper those capitalists never miss an opportunity to drum up business

@BitFlipper just no words........
