I’ve talked to a number of employers who know the people who are not coming in to work. They’re not coming in because they are making enough stimulus money to not work. The employers would like to not take them back, but if and when they come back they’re actually needed. At the heart of the unemployment money you’ll find Uncle Sugar Biden.
