[h=1]Coronavirus job losses hit these 3 states the hardest[/h]
[FONT=&quot]Comparing each state’s average weekly jobless claims totals over the past six weeks to the week before shutdowns started occurring, reveals Georgia, Florida, and Alabama to be the three states showing the largest percentage spike in people applying for unemployment benefits. Georgia in particular saw jobless claims average a nearly 5,000% spike versus the week ending March 14. Florida and Alabama saw slightly less dramatic peaks, with claims surging about 4,000%.[/FONT]

The devastation hasn’t even begun yet

The devastation hasn’t even begun yet

Yeah, we've been devastated here in Texas. We've had 99,996 people out of 100,000 not die of this virus. As we reopen and people start mingling again, the numbers will go up (this isn't rocket science). I can see the headlines already....Deaths in Texas have tripled since re-opening! All the Useful Idiots will be screaming "I told you so". And I'll still be looking at 99,988 people out of 100,000 that have not died and wondering why we ever shutdown the economy.

Exactly why I'm glad we have quickly re-opened and hope other states with similar geography follow suit.

We are now totally fucked by these idiotic governors, they have ruined the country.

Millions of jobs are gone and not coming back for years.

All these Democrat/Rino governors have ruined millions of peoples lives using this overblown virus
Millions of small businesses are gone and not coming back.

We just screwed our country and it's people for a decade just so these people who hate Trump and want to get him out of office
at any cost. These politicians think the end justifies the means.

We are just collateral damage and we do not matter at all...

We are in a very bad recession right now but it will probably be going to a depression and people will be struggling for years now due to this
Crime will be skyrocketing, I hope you have your gun permit, guns because I think you will be needing it int he coming future.
When the economy is bad people will do whatever they can for money.

When the economy is bad people will do whatever they can for money.

Including working at a job. Since people in Alabama, Florida, and Georgia don't want to do that, that means the economy isn't bad yet.

“Food banks are the safety net under the safety net,” Andy Fisher, food security expert

One serious question to the above photos:

How many of these people will learn financial responsibilities and save for 3-6 months worth of bills, including groceries....

Or will the majority expect others to bail them out....

Protesters demand end to Manitoba's COVID-19 lockdown measures



- A crowd descended on the Manitoba Legislature Building Saturday afternoon, demanding an end to the COVID-19 quarantine.
Led by Gerry Bohemier, a retired chiropractor, the protest of more than 100 people, is the largest seen in the province in months.
We don't want this kind of lockdown and assassination on our economy like we're seeing right now," said Bohemier.

could say the same to these multi-million and billion dollar companies who are getting bailed out.
they are worth billions for a reason.

all this really exposed was who was overleveraged and who was not
poor people never had the money to begin with. what is the excuse for these big businesses?

It's gonna get ugly within 4 to 8 months.......we will see people defaulting on their cars & homes. It's gonna be a mess......I'm hoping people can get their jobs back, but how do you get your job back with 30% of all businesses will be shutting down permanently.

Meat packing plants will convert over to robotics eliminating hundreds of jobs thanks to the Coronavirus...........it's gonna get ugly, but I hope it doesn't.

I don’t agree with big businesses finding loopholes to take advantage of a situation or those who donate heavily to either party to be rewarded.
