>The source of worker shortages, supply chain bottlenecks and a lot of our stagflationary issues can be traced directly back to the government’s covid restrictions and **the covid welfare programs**. Get rid of the restrictions, the mandates and the **covid checks** and over time the crisis will disappear. It really is that simple. However, the establishment does not want you to see it that way. Aren’t those gone? I see states spending the covid money they never handed out. I thought the eviction moratorium and increased unemployment were over. >Marxist/Socialist groups are working feverishly to make hay with the covid protests and employee strikes in an attempt to attribute them to “worker discontent” over low wages and “mistreatment” rather than the covid mandates. This is nonsense. The shortage doesn’t make any sense, first it’s wages, then it’s not feeling safe around the unvaxxed as they go and party and shopping all day. Where’s the money for these 20ish kids coming from. >First and foremost, wages have been rising exponentially in the past year for what I would call “zero skill workers” in the retail and service industries. When a potential employee with no valuable skills can walk into almost any chain restaurant or retail outlet and get $15 or more an hour on top of a signing bonus of hundreds of dollars just for showing up on the first day, there is no unfair disparity for the working class. I had some well dressed young 20 something ask me for change the other day lol. Of course he was wearing a mask outside and no bus had come by so he’s just a moron. I said it’s 2021, people don’t have change, get a job.
