When the COVID War broke out last year and the mainstream media pumped up a steady stream of fear and hysteria, we had forecast that people would flee big cities to escape the coronavirus and rising crime rates.
They did. A June survey by Pew Research Centers found that 28 percent of the people who moved out cited the risk of being hit with the virus as the most important reason.
That was then. A poll conducted in November showed that a third of respondents cited financial reasons as their primary reason to relocate while only 14 percent said they were concerned about being infected by the coronavirus.
With ten million fewer jobs in the economy than in February 2020 when politicians launched the COVID War, millions of Americans are struggling to stay financially afloat. According to the latest data, some 40 percent of those jobless in January were unemployed for over six months.
A study by the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia showed that tenants who lost jobs during the lockdowns amassed $11 billion in rental arrears; a broader measure estimated that as of January, renters owed $53 billion in missed rent, utility payments, and late fees.
Heidi Shierholz, director of Policy at the Economic Policy Institute, a think tank, told CNBC that at the current rate, it would take about 29 years to get back to pre-recession levels.
TRENDPOST: While the billionaires got over a trillion dollars richer since politicians launched the COVID War, some eight million Americans have fallen into poverty. A report from analysts at the University of Chicago released last month said the poverty rate in the U.S. went from 9.7 percent in June to 11.7 percent in November – the biggest yearly increase since the federal government began tracking the poverty rate in 1960.
And in Slavelandia U.S.A., the “officials” have concluded that for a family of two, those earning under $17,240 annually is considered the poverty rate.
To illustrate the absurdity of this calculation, considering that the average apartment rental rate in the U.S. is $1,468 per month or $17,616 a year, according to the American government, those making more than that, who, after paying rent, but do not have any money to eat, buy clothes, own a car, pay for health care, etc. … are not impoverished.
