   Sorry to hear things are so bad for you, and a lot of others. As I said   
   before, I wouldn't comment directly on someone else's situation. Only you know   
   where you stand and what you are going through. That said, the gov't has   
   passed out a huge amount of money trying to support as many people as they can   
   and they can't keep doing it forever. Hopefully before too many more months   
   this thing will start to reverse itself or get so mild that we can finally   
   Safely treat it like the Flu and get back to living our lives.   
      
   My situation is different since I'm on pensions now so my income is   
   guaranteed, if not too high, and my only worry is shortages of things I need   
   to buy and the rising costs of gas and groceries, but that is minor compared   
   to what a lot of younger people have had to put up with.   
      
   I was also self employed the last 33 years I worked so it's a long time since   
   I had to put up with others telling me what I have to do or the threat of   
   losing my job, although at times you lose your income for a while so it's not   
   all a bed of roses..   
      
   Hang in there.. this too shall pass..
