The Economic Plague Edition.

This warms my cold shrunken heart:

Low pay and the company’s disrespect for its workers led to employees quitting en masse last Monday and Tuesday in Eliot, Maine

The Flashpoint. FU, DG!

Happening-Here quotes Krugman on the labor market. From 2013. The more things change ...

Journal of the Plague Years: Things in Texas not going well, from Off the Kuff. Key line: "they are seeing a lot more younger patients with serious COVID issues, as in 'needing a lung transplant'”.

Bonus fan-hitting from Buttermilk Sky.

Carefully curated by that nattering nabob of negativism, M. Bouffant. Send stuff we can use for this feature to mbru@crooksandliars.com.
