Sacramento may pay people $1,000 to stay home when infected by coronavirus
Dealing with lower-income and hourly workers hit by the coronavirus, Sacramento County health officials say they are hoping to put together an experimental plan to pay some infected people $1,000 to get them to stay home from work for two weeks to avoid infecting others.
The money would represent roughly two weeks of pay at about $12.50 an hour for people who might otherwise be tempted to go to work because they can’t afford to lose a paycheck and would not qualify for unemployment. That could include undocumented workers.

17 Facts That Prove The U.S. Economy Is A Complete And Total Disaster Zone At This Point
The mainstream media admits that a “collapse” has happened, but they still believe that eventually things will turn around and get back to where they were before.
#1 According to the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce, more than half of all the storefronts in the entire city of San Francisco are no longer in business.
#2 Just a few hours ago, New York City reported that it had an unemployment rate of almost 20 percent during the month of July.
#3 Speaking of New York, 83 percent of all restaurants in the city were unable to pay their full rent last month.
#4 In 2020, the state of Louisiana has lost twice as many jobs as it did after Hurricane Katrina. By the way, many are concerned that Hurricane Laura could soon become a similar monster storm.
#5 In the state of South Carolina, an eye-popping 52 percent of all renters “are at risk of eviction”.
#6 Americans now owe more than 21 billion dollars in unpaid rent.
#7 Overall, 27 percent of all Americans did not make their rent or mortgage payment last month.
#8 According to the Mortgage Bankers Association, the delinquency rate on residential mortgages increased by 386 basis points last quarter. That was the most rapid rise that we have ever seen by a very wide margin.
#9 U.S. bankruptcies are already at their highest level in 10 years and they are expected to surge dramatically as we approach the end of this calendar year.
#10 For companies with more than 1 billion dollars in assets, it is being projected that there will be a record number of bankruptcies in 2020.

#13 American Airlines just announced that they will be eliminating 19,000 jobs next month.
#14 31 percent of U.S. workers that were brought back to work after being laid off during the early stages of this pandemic have been laid off a second time, and another 26 percent have been told that layoffs may be coming soon.
#15 According to one recent survey, about half of all U.S. workers that have been laid off during this pandemic believe that their jobs losses are permanent.
#16 The IRS is projecting that it will receive 37 million fewer W-2 forms for this year than originally anticipated.
#17 Over the last 22 weeks, more than 57 million Americans have filed new claims for unemployment benefits. In all of U.S. history, we have never seen anything that is even worth comparing to this.
Many of the numbers in that list are so catastrophic that it is difficult to believe that they are actually true

Americans will realize we are sinking into the quicksand of full blown Communism. A slow decades long process of psychological warfare that moves through four stages. As former KGB propagandist Yuri Bezmenov explained back in 1984. America is entering the final stages of the process.The stage known as normalization. Where a permanent authoritarianism has been synthesized through crisis. The crisis we are currently experiencing engineered by the Democratic Party.

Police Requests To Access Your Smart Speaker Are Up 72% Since 2016
Amazon said it had received more than 3,000 requests for smart speaker user data from police earlier this year, according to a new article from Wired. Even more stunning, Amazon complied with the police's requests on more than 2,000 occasions, forking over recordings and data that give law enforcement an ear into someone's household.
This number marks a 72% increase in these types of requests from the same period in 2016 - the first time Amazon disclosed the data. The number of requests are up 24% year over year.
Police can continue to collect data if one electronic device (like a phone) leads them to another (like a smart home speaker) simply by amending search warrants, he said.
Police are also relying on wearables and smart devides to verify claims people make during an investigation
