I'm an essential worker who hasn't missed a day since the pandemic. I've had coworkers quit or refuse to come back due to being overcompensated while being unemployment. Some people choosing to not work (I'm not including people laid off) are making more money than me while I'm working! Not fair!

Cheryl Wilder

Most Essential workers only make minimum wage.

It’s not my life to tell someone else who or what they are allowed to love or how to live. This is AMERICA LAND OF THE FREE! People should have the right to marry whoever as long as they aren’t hurting anyone and are of the legal age. Beyond that it’s a freedom of choice.

I live in a 1200 sq ft house in Palm Desert with a brand new a/c unit. I keep my AC set at 78-80 and my electric bill was $718 last month. What a rip off. Thanks Edison! Why can't you be more like IID? A little more caring and NOT so greedy
