I LOVE BILLIONAIRES RUNNING THE COUNTRY
get 600+ your state unemployment
Pretty based
The shutdown is caused by government bureaucrats, not billionaires. Why would he not want to make money?
Houston Billionaire Tilman Fertitta also owns a fucking hospitality business.
Is he just supposed to keep them all at work waiting tables for nobody?
At least many were probably able to apply for unemployment before systems became overwhelmed.
>implying millennials know the difference.
Probably getting paid more now than when they were working. Seems pretty based to me.
>implying government bureaucrats aren't billionaires and billionaire lackeys
Being laid off allows you to collect UI. Having your hours cut means you cannot collect UI. I'm an electrician and it's standard to immediately lay people off so they can get on UI.
>Fertitta is reportedly willing to pay a whopping 15% interest to any lenders that are willing to offer him a $250 million “lifeline” loan, according to Bloomberg.
Sounds like it wasn't really an option, those businesses were on unstable ground. But gommies would rather they just keep running with no customers and go bankrupt and not be able to reopen with those jobs lost permanently.
>with those jobs lost permanently
I guarantee you almost all of the job losses happening now aren't coming back after the stay at home orders are lifted.
wtf now i love the idea of starving in a commie shithole
Big Think
The government would pay him to keep people employed tho, and not for 600
And there are no good options for 45K people right now, you dumb cunt
They'll be back. There's nothing fundamentally wrong and people will be desperate to consoom.
For low earners, it is actual a favor right now. You fucking kike
This, they're probably getting paid more after getting laid off, that's why it's a favor. The employees get more money and the company saves money from payroll.
Are you retarded
The least he could do is get a fucking NHL team in Houston goddamn.
Now we're talking.
Why the fuck would we want that retarded shit
Nice guy. They're already bitching about rolling the CARES act back. You need to be getting your 6 month mortgage forbearance too. Use it or lose it.
An expected fifty million people will be laid off by end of month. And these are jobs deemed non-essential. Each out of work person is multiple lost customers for other businesses since they won't want to spend on a bunch of non-essential expenses during an economic depression while without an income (government checks will at most last 4 months as it is). People in general will be spending way less on non-essential expenses because they just learned by force that while they're unemployed they at least have an easy way to save money by doing what they've had to do recently and continuing to handle eating at home instead of going out to restaurants. Cruises, forget about it. Any voluntary products or services that involve signing a contract? Sales people will be out of luck getting customers for that. And it's a compounding feedback loop. No stable employment -> less spending on non-essential expenses -> less business -> more layoffs -> no stable employment -> etc.
You can't just reverse this with that many layoffs all at once. It was an interdependent living system.
Indeed they would, but he'd need to use that money paying employees. Why would he make people work for the same amount they can get sitting on their assess?
You commies are gonna need to learn. People who actually work, risking bodily injury are going to have to receive more take home income than people who get NEETbux. You wanna pay everyone to sit at home and not cause trouble, then people will do that instead of work and risk interactions with a degenerate public.
They won't be back. The vast majority of workers(women especially) are completely worthless and were only hired to meet affirmative action quotas. Those quotas have been removed.
Trump supporters are uneducated shitbagz who unironically vote against their own economic interests
>. You wanna pay everyone to sit at home
Not everyone, own well qualified workers during a once in 100 years crisis they didn't cause.
Why do you want them starving and getting evicted and all that shit because some retard ate a bat in come shithole?
You're a brainwashed moron puppet of the megarich class, you should hang.
>Why do you want them starving and getting evicted and all that shit because some retard ate a bat in come shithole?
They aren't worth keeping alive?
Larger portion of people out of work than ever before even including the Great Depression now (and the month still has two weeks left). You know what people do when everyone's out of work and times are strange and frightening? They cut WAY back on spending. Penny pinching Great Depression behavior is not the environment conducive to creating jobs again and getting everyone employed again. A company isn't going to want to open back up hundreds or thousands of jobs if the customer base is all laid off or otherwise not looking to pay them.
you get 100% of your previous salary from unemployment if you get fired without cause, so yeah this is doing them a favor versus reducing hours or scheduling them 0 hours or something
Plus 600 fed bucks a week
>import millions of subhumans, it’s in your economic interest!
Nice try schlomo
