AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce My Opinion on Cash bail out to the Middle Class has been echoed by Furman of the Wall Street Journal. Cash is stimulus. Loosening food stamps, unemployment insurance and Expanding Medicaid in all States would be a help too! This is our 1 st Pandemic, it won’t be our last. We’ll need Government policies to maintain business & the stock market!

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce Latest map of Covid 19 in United States. Wash with soap & water. Use alcohol swabs instead of Purell. Be a responsible Corporate citizen, follow Apple’s example and give paid sick leave. Corporations don’t need more tax cuts, they need to pay contractors for sick leave. GB had 5 million more cases of H1N1 without paid leave. Now everyone gets paid sick leave to cut down on contagion. We can do it, too! It would be cheaper than $800 Billion.

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce Set a new precedent, determine what you give to Charity & give extra pay increases to your employees first. Than they’ll be able to stay home if they get Covid 19. It’s good for your business, good for your employees and guaranteed to curtail the virus’ spreading. Do society a favor, $4000 extra means survival & unending loyalty. Do it now!

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce Diseases of Despair can be eliminated with a vocational or BA degree. It shouldn’t be difficult to provide training or an education to prevent premature deaths. We’re unlike any other Western Nation, we care more about Profits and less about People! There are solutions to our State of Inequality.

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce Trump Administration EPA wants to release confidential data on human trials, concluding investigations into air & water pollution. Why destroy scientific data? The destruction of valuable data, won’t change conditions on the ground. We’re still dying from pollution and Diseases of Despair. Why be an ostrich? Are the personal profits worth the harm to the majority?

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce How are we going to teach our children the analytical skills needed to survive & thrive, when we curtail funding to tenured professionals & make adjuncts travel 100’s of mikes to make a days wages. Late Stage Capitalism has been cruel to academia but lucrative to Administrators &, sports complexes & cafeterias. The “physical plant” doesn’t teach our kids. Invest in professional educators and innovate to remain current !

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce The worlds forests used to absorb 26% of all Carbon generated in the 90’s. Today the forests only absorb 6% of the Worlds Carbon. There is a major meeting in Glasgow this November on Climate events and targets. Carbon offsets don’t reduce Carbon in the atmosphere, only a switch to Renewables and a new way of generating energy will change our rate of Pollution, our warming feedback loops and Carbon footprint.

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce What else will this Administration do to stimulate our Economy & the World’s? Will we keep credit flowing to rich & poor alike? Will we lift tariffs to make the flow of goods easier? Will we invest in R&D , health & healthcare, the poorer nations and our own working poor? We’ve shot one bullet in our Monetary arsenal. How will we help all citizens survive & thrive?
