That's only the people that were working for others.

There's millions more small business owners that are SOL, and since they are self-employed, can't get unemployment benefits, so they remain uncounted.

And unless they found a way to get a .gov scamulus check, they haven't received a dime since this thing started.

End of March to middle of May, so far, with no income.

Their lives destroyed, so liberals could feel better.


Actually the self employed are eligible for the $600 Federal money if they can prove prior income. They need to apply for UI through their state unemployment department, so they are being tracked. They are not necessarily eligible for state UI benefits but that's how they are getting the Fed kicker. I'm working on contract for several states UI offices helping to get people's claims right so that's how I know.

They say everything happens for a reason.
For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.
