It so happens that Justanidiot is right again. How dare anyone question the dedication and altruism of our beautiful City government workers? Tell that to Granny who had to sell her house because the taxes made it impossible to live there. In the meantime, City Hall closed, libraries closed, schools closed. Here is a list of City offices & depts closed or partially closed: Tax Collector, Tax Assessor, Animal Shelter, Board of Canvassers, Building Dept, City Council Liaison, Libraries, Parks & Rec Dept, Planning Dept, Pilgrim Senior Center, Sewer Authority, City Clerk. Municipal Court, School Dept.- bus drivers, custodians, teachers working their heads off. Yes, it is idiotic to think that they have been laid off with full pay as it would not have happened in the private sector, but when the taxpayer is on the hook, it's no problem. So of the 180,000 RI workers who have applied for unemployment compensation in 2020, how many of them are City or State workers?

Most of the 18% of RI population were furloughed because of the Wuhan virus which has caused the death of less than 200 or .0002% of RI population. To paraphrase Winston Churchill: "never have SO MANY given SO MUCH for SO FEW and received SO LITTLE!"
