4/2 Unemployment Spreads Like the 30’s Dust Bowl; Evening OT
keeping on the theme of labor, I saw this graphic this afternoon:

We must take care of the millions of American workers on the front lines of the #coronavirus outbreak.
Thanks to @SenSherrodBrown for standing strong with @UFCW75 and all #Ohio workers to ensure we support these brave men and women keeping us safe. #1uhttps://t.co/mBxJRcy3Ke

How in the hell are the more than 10 million Americans who lost their jobs and the tens of millions on the verge of unemployment supposed to afford a public option? #MedicareForAll is the only bill that will make sure everyone receives the care they need regardless of income.

What else besides “My Cornona” (play on the Knack’s “My Sharona)”? More tweets, videos, analysis summaries, and jibber-jabber in the comments. See you there! This serves as an Open Thread.
Not gonna fall in line with the DNC so “It is better to die on your feet than live on your knees.”
wi61: you know surprises do happen, and Bernie may very well win your state. A lot has radically changed since FL voted.
Believe me orl my fingers are crossed along with everything else
I guess the MSM aren’t having Smalls as a guest on their show because of the massive amounts of AD spending in their organizations. This is another reason why Bernie should be president. He is not beholden to any corporate interest.
Now Bezos donates millions to food banks, in which Chris Smalls, who was just fired by Amazon, is likely to have to visit to feed himself.
Borg Brain is just trying to make his ugly (and how with that shaved head) self look good.
Why does Lex Luthor come to mind when I see him?
Mr. Smalls sounds pretty damned smart and articulate to me!
Their are so many times where I was following orders is the excuse. Well a captain is responsible for the lives under his/her command. So IMHO he did the right thing to get his crew treatment.

Okay, young people, GET YOUR BUTTS IN GEAR!
pb4: this is off topic, but I’m still laughing at that story you posted on la58’s OT about Billy Gibbons canning the MAGA redneck music freak.
ty. gibbons is one cool cat.
not sure if the appeal still stands.
What’s Biden’s reason for not supporting an all-mail in election?
People Should Not Be Forced to Put Their Lives on the Line to Vote
voter suppression by virus. Welcome to the New World to the New World….
ByeDone showing his true GOPuke/DINO colors.
Do we need any further evidence that Biden won’t change a damned thing that’s going on? He’s already bipartisan-ing people to their death.
Send that tweet to Biden, Bernie! He is not your friend!
Just like your state i’m expecting a spike in cases in 4-7 days after the election
I wish she would endorse Bernie.
Anyone who hasn’t by now has lost a lot of my respect. But she’s always had a centrist streak. At least for the last five years or so it seems
she’d rather retweet Tammy Baldwin.
I think she’s right to speak up about this though. I don’t imagine Ron Johnson would.
del
Johnson oh hell no, Another Wi embarrassment
Who could have guessed?

Clips from The View yesterday with Bernie Sanders. I don’t know exactly which order they are supposed to go in, so apologies in advance if they are not sequenced properly.
I’ve been a big fan of Yves Smith and Naked Capitalism for the last few years. That site despises Private Equity companies. They should be outlawed and the CEOs jailed. I agree wholeheartedly.
Private equity firms are killing us.
Giving till it hurts aren’t they…
Compare that the the % that would be taken away by a wealth tax, etc.
And they would still be obscenly rich
im of 2 minds about this I want him to slide it in like a knife in the night.
People will be upset if he comes out as nasty and the MSM and will do all they can to portray him as that. They already do.
I don’t think Bernie needs to repeat that Joe is a friend of mine either. Get to the points.
true.
🙂

thanks low info voters
