There are 167 US billionaires whose net worth is between $206-billion and $4-billion. So here’s my plan! Ask them to donate what would be the equivalent of ordinary folks buying Girl Scout cookies!
See attached spreadsheet to keep track of the donations!
To prevent the spread of COVID 19, Americans are being responsibly told to wash your hands well and frequently, cover your mouth when you cough, and STAY HOME IF YOU FEEL ILL, BUT…
The independently wealthy in America, with paid time off, a human boss who wants to keep the workplace safe, can stay home and still survive well. On the other hand, most other workers, won’t have income and may lose their jobs if they do the right thing and stay home! One third of US workers don’t even have paid sick time! What shall these people do? Go to work so they and their families can have money to survive or stay home – do the right thing to stop the pandemic – and as a thank you, they and their families will go hungry and not be able to pay their bills?
“With more than a third of Americans in jobs that offer no sick leave at all, many unfortunately cannot afford to take any days off when they are feeling sick,” Robyn Gershon, an epidemiology professor at the NYU School of Global Public Health, wrote in an email. “People who do not (or cannot) stay home when sick do present a risk to others.” On this count, the United States is a global anomaly, one of only a handful of countries that doesn’t guarantee its workers paid leave of any kind. These jobs are also the kind least likely to supply workers with health insurance, making it difficult for millions of people to get medical proof that they can’t go to work.
No matter who we vote for, let’s vote for giving America the wherewithal it needs to keep our sick workers home when they are sick! Here is a list of the wealthiest billionaires in the USA. Instead of running for president, I suggest they create a sick leave fund to prevent COVID 19 spread! Put your money where the pandemic is!
