Coronavirus has knocked out blacks in the more ways that one.

Millions and millions of unskilled labor Hispanics are out of a job also.

Trump had the lowest black unemployment in our history, yet the majority will still vote against him. It's hard to break that plantation mentality.

Trump performed a miracle. China undid the miracle. It will take a miracle to get back.

I imagine that when the enhanced unemployment benefits end next month as originally planned, we'll see a lot of them who had jobs returning to the work force.

It's going to be worse than that if Democrats get back in power b/c they will quickly open the borders.

I suspect many will self-deport. Until the economy revs back up again.

Millions and millions of whites are also out of a job.

quote:

The employment-population ratio, a rarely used figure that measures the percentage of people working out of the total population, including children, students and retirees, was 48.8 percent for black Americans in April, the first time it has dropped below 50 percent since 1983.

For April, the same number for whites was 51.8 percent, for Hispanics/Latinos 51.3 percent, and for Asians 51.8 percent - all record-low levels for the respective groups.
