Business Interruption

Many companies in the US that are still buying produce have contracts with foreign suppliers. Many farmers cannot even donate the food to food banks because the pantries are fully stocked.

Approximately one-third of the entire population of the globe now is under some sort of a lockdown order. A few are able to work at home, but the vast majority are forcibly unemployed. Many small businesses will not survive the folly of their leaders, and the number of homeless will drastically rise.

The mayor said that water and power would be turned off for nonessential businesses to force them to close. He called the businesses that have yet to close "irresponsible and selfish.” While small business owners are fighting for economic survival, the Mayor enjoys a handsome salary with no interruptions or reductions.
