Here is my proposal for economic recovery.
It is apparent that virus related law suits will be manifold and will persist for years. If everyone who is currently unemployed were retrained in the law, I believe we can sue each other, back and forth, until we return to prosperity.
Yepper, Mr. D … you do bring a smile and chuckle to our minds. Thank you for your always welcome commentary.
Love how our wonderful elected officials didn’t consult any health officials before saying Lancaster County will open on Friday.
Hope they aren’t planning to use the CARES Act money since we won’t see it now because of their decision. The elected official who signed the letter should give up their salaries or maybe they should be furloughed. They are useless and just want to have a resurge of the virus and then that will make everything worse and then the county will get no financial help from the state because they put everyone and everything in jepordy. They all need voted out.
