This can only last as long as the fake money. Fake money can only last until hyperinflation. Tick tock.

^^ THIS ^^^

extended unemployment benefits

multiple iterations of stimulus

relief from having to pay rent
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78527200




It is also really REALLY bad in retail as well
Nobody is applying
Here in AZ on the unemployment weekly claim they have turned off the function of having to search for a job and report it. Its skipped over completely, they aren't even requiring you to seek work here.
I interviewed a lady who applied for one of the several job openings I have. When I made my offer and hourly rate she told me no thanks I make more on unemployment and hung up on the phone on me.....

Time for restaurant owners to boost pay across the board for the workers they have left, especially if they're good!

Just found out my favorite restaurant closed! I got a hold of the owner. He said he had to close he can't find anyone to work because they want the unemployment instead. Biden bucks! Welcome to communism!

Go volunteer at your favorite restaurant if they need help. If everyone who wanted a meal there worked 30 minutes we can save any restaurant we want.

Good suggestion for sure....small businesses love folks that love their businesses and in exchange many will provide you with a meal at no charge or some other perk that is cost effective for them.

I think many patrons have been donating cash to owners since COVID came around to keep the establishments able to pay their essential bills and providing bigger tips to severs to keep them working too.

Communism is the one guy in government who was saying go back to work and school? Interesting interpretation of history. Some call it rewriting history, but we’ll call it interpretation for the sake of argument.

They had a news story of local restaurants having trouble finding workers

One owner said she needed waiters, waitresses, busboys, dishwashers, cooks. Basically every position.

Yea it was stupid to extend unemployment benefits through the summer and into September

Everyone knew the economy is going to explode in May

Many have had to stay at home and take care of children who aren’t in school. Not all schools are open to full capacity. Nor are daycares. And of course some can’t wear a mask all day. I don’t blame them for that. It is unhealthy. When the schools open up and masks are history then people can and will go back to work.

I would laugh you out of the park except my cousin runs her own business and literally all of her people quit to get that unemployment money and thought they could just come back. They lost their jobs. Idiots. She told them all, they went anyway. Step over a dollar to get a dime type of people.

Re: Restaurants closing but not because of the COVID!
I've been to fast food chains several times recently that were closed at the busy time of day because they had no employees show up. Went through a Big Boy drive thru the other day. We had to park and wait for our food. It took forever and the girl (I think manager) finally brought it out and was apologizing profusely. She said she was the only one there...running drive thru and cooking. I felt bad for her. I was just taking to a friend today whose friend has a business and can't get employees.

not communism but it's not good either.

Communism is state owned business, state paid worker.

Biden's plan is missing 2/3rds the communist equation. The state didn't own that restaurant and that "worker" isn't working for anyone. They're isn't even a pre-tense of work being traded for the money from the state as it was in the communist system.
