Does anyone honestly believe that the very Federal Gov't that caused or created these problems will now be able to fix them?
And they have the nerve to suggest increasing the visa program as a solution?
How about stopping all of the "assistance" and letting the Laws of Economics fix the problems naturally?
If people stop getting free money, just maybe they will return to work.
And maybe stop the lunatic quarantine "guidelines" and use common sense testing measures instead.
