Who would've guessed that putting people out of work raises unemployment?

    Sprichst du Deutsch? Oder ist dies Sheiße? Ich sehe Spam auf Chinesich und dein Konto ist sechs Stunden alt... Ich denke, du bist ein Spammer. Auch, Ich denke du sprichst Deutsch nicht und dies ist eine Kopie.

    Und, ja, mein Deutsch ist Scheiße.

      This does make sense as democratic governors have put in the most stringent lockdowns

          Could the blue states be ones with more cities where COVID restrictions would be more justified? (trying to offer a charitable explanation here)

          Pretty much. Red states tend to be rural, where everyone can be more naturally spaced. If you can get 6 feet from everyone in NYC before lockdown, I'd like to know how.

          And what about the labor participation rate, because sure, 6% looking for a job vs 3% looking for a job is way different from 50% not working vs 50% not working
