  Reparations passes (Fox News)

The City Council in Evanston, Ill., voted 8-1 late Monday to approve a plan to make reparations available to Black residents over past discrimination and the lingering effects of slavery.

Help wanted! An observation here!

Lot of reports about employers having trouble hiring, especially entry level “lower wage” positions. Unemployed can get:

• $240 per week AZ 
• $300 per week fed
• That’s $540 per week. 
• $3,560 if you count stimulus, may be short term but why get a minimum wage job this month. Take $22 per hr. In “Government Money” or work for $12? No brainer!
• If you make anything you’re bounces off unemployment. Why work?

Listener email from Debra

Debra is “concerned about the latest narrative that even if you get the vaccine you must still be muzzled and in addition you will be told to get more and more of their jabs. Very suspicious to me. Seems like it's a very profitable plan for a very few people at the top. Frankly I do not believe the ever changing story. Meanwhile we continue to lose our God given rights.”

27:21-43:58
