1) As many of you know I live in a mid-western state,in a rural community. Today my daughter (who has 2 small children and lives with us) went to work at Walmart.She was sent home because she had a sore throat.She was told to get a coronavirus test,stay home and not tell anyone.

2) She asked Walmart were she could get tested and they said they had no idea. She finally found an open Urgent Care and they took her temp and it was elevated. They told here there were no tests available and go home and self quarantine.

3) When she got home she told us what had happened so I called our states vivid-19 hotline. They had no idea when there would be tests in our area and there may be 100’s of undiagnosed cases so quarantine for 14 days and see how you feel.

Can I tell you a story?

1)So my in-laws are coming into town,I tell my wife let's take them out to dinner since you don't see them very much.She calls them and they say OK we will meet you at the restaurant.
We go to the restaurant and wait.About 30 min.later they get there.

2)Along with my in-laws are 4 other people from their "church".
Now these people turn out to be bat-shit crazy,Trump loving,evangelical nut jobs
As we wait to get our food I have to sit through the stupidest bullshit I have ever heard."Trump is the savior,Muslims are terrorists.

3)My wife is kicking me under the table,shooting me the eye. It is complete torture.
As if it couldn't get any worse after we get done eating its "praying time".
So now 10 minutes of crying,hand holding,talking in tongues and praises for our President saving little babys

Payday lenders have spent over 1,000,000 at Trump properties.
1)In mid-March, the payday lending industry held its annual convention at the Trump National Doral hotel outside Miami.
The industry had felt under siege during the Obama administration is now feeling much much better.

2)This is the same Payday Loan industry that would charge a young single mother almost 2000 in a year in fees for an initial loan of $425.00.
The original loan must be paid back in full every two weeks and then the money is reborrowed. Many have numerous loans out at same time.

3)The hourly paid "managers" of these Payday Loan Branches jobs depend on how many customers they can get,how much in fees,how much they can get custs. to borrow.Every employee is expected to get maximum amounts or their jobs are at risk.
