So that tells me to keeping your distance and practicing personal hygiene and wearing a mask with the people working is working. So get yer asses back to work!!!
90% eh where did you get those stats???? I'm thinking somewhere between 25 and 30% but that is a "guess".
Us Labor statistics. 1/1/2020 164,606,000 workforce. Out of work now 22,000,000. Percentage of workforce out of work = .13%
87% of workforce is still working based on latest numbers.
BETTER ??????
That doesn't count small business owners like me (I'm the only worker in the business and I'm at a standstill) who filed for an SBA PPP loan instead of unemployment. However, the SBA ran out of money and I don't know if I'll get the loan. Not sure if it's even possible to back-date an unemployment claim to mid-March when my business was idled. And I still must wait to see what the lender can do for me. I bet there are many other little businesses and contractors who are in the same situation. But we aren't
officially unemployed... yet.
