In-corona-herence

Political leadership: The virus is spreading! Everybody needs to stop going out and getting into big crowds and line-ups and stuff in public. Stay inside! Preferably under something.  Don't make us have to take away your go-cups. Okay well, see, we are taking away your co-cups now.


Also political leadership:  What's the matter with you people? Don't you know you're supposed to get out and go to work in our groceries and classrooms and places where people get into big crowds and line-ups and stuff in public? If you're going to just sit at home, don't expect us to help you.
Many Republicans detest the supplemental jobless aid, put in place by the $2.2 trillion stimulus law, arguing that it is a disincentive to returning to work because it exceeds what some workers can earn in regular wages. The Republican proposal, which has badly divided the party, envisions eventually shifting to a new system of calculating benefits that would cap payments at about 70 percent of a worker’s prior income, which would also amount to about $200 per week.
