Maxine Waters Says The Unthinkable, Doesn’t Want ‘Business to Open Back Up’
This isn’t going to go over so well…

The balancing act that our nation faces today has been the subject of endless debate as of late, and some of the corners that our elected officials have backed into are simply ludicrous.
Where it stands today is such: Without another round of major economic stimulus, we are fast approaching a point where Americans will need to get back to work at businesses that are currently shuttered on account of coronavirus. Otherwise, there will be a vast economic collapse.
But, if we reopen before Americans are comfortable in public, we risk bringing about an even swifter demise, as restaurants and music venues start spending money without making any. Just because these businesses are open, doesn’t mean that they’re going to profitable – just ask bartenders in Atlanta how it’s going if you need proof of the problem.
Again, economic stimulus can help prevent this from being an issue.
But what happens when our legislators have no economic worry at all? We’re unfortunately on the verge of finding out.
Monday night on Spectrum News 1’s “Inside the Issues,” Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) said President Donald Trump and the lockdown protesters should be ashamed of themselves for pressuring governors to reopen their states.
Waters said, “You know our governors are under great stress. The protests that have been organized, the protests trying to intimidate our governors to open up everything are protests where the people participating in that should be ashamed of themselves. They should not be encouraged in any way. They should not be encouraged from the top leadership of this country to go out and do that.”
Then came Waters’ most damning statement, [added emphasis].
She continued, “I know the pressure is on. I know that you’re trying to hold the line. I want you to hold the line. I don’t want to see these establishments opened back up. I want the federal government to join with the cities and the states to support these families in every way that we can. I do want a moratorium on rent evictions. I have a huge bill. I have a $100 billion bill to pay the landlords. We don’t want them to risk their properties, many of them have bought a small number of units, ten units, four units as retirement property. I know that they need to pay their mortgages. I am going to absolutely see to it that they are reimbursed, that they are paid for the moratorium on evictions on their apartments.”
Waters’ lack of concern for the economic balance is concerning, to say the least.
