Maryland Bar Owner Melony Wagner Claims Employees Not Returning to Work Because They Make More Money from Unemployment


66 views

Democratic ideas always sound like good policies at the time. 

After all, they just want to "care" for people.

But the problem is that sometimes the government safety net gets turned into a hammock.

A Maryland bar owner has made headlines for claiming that her employees no longer want to return to work.

Why? 

Are they scared of contracting COVID-19?

That would be the reasonable guess, but no…

Melony Wagner says her employees don't want to return to work because they make more money sitting at home and collecting unemployment checks from the government, she claims.

"Why would you want to come back and actually work and make half as much money and you're working as you can get to stay home?" Wagner asks.

She says she's not even mad at them and she understands the human nature of their decisions.

However, it's not just Wagner.

This has been a concern that Republicans have had about the stimulus.

As states continue to reopen around the country, this is a scenario that is likely to repeat itself over and over again.
