I've come to the realization that we are "expendables" to the PTB. [View all]

Who are those powers that be?. I'd wager the big money investment/ corporations DEMANDING that we do anything-hell or high water style-to keep the shops open & kids in school. Nothing we can regulate till we have an actual national workers rights bill.

All of the latest "advice" and protocols are aimed at keeping the cash machines flowing. And they all are not in keeping with even common sense.

This is going to end in a predictable fashion with a very sick & overwrought workforce that may collapse at any extra stress.

They have not cared about the well being of workers for the last 30+ years. Now they don't care if we just drop dead. As long as they can shove another peg into the slot they could care less.

Just my $.02
