What is happening to our civil rights and liberties? I am a young attorney who is suffering from the shutdown of businesses, and I don’t understand why this is acceptable.
Samuel C. Stretton.
Unfortunately, America has become a nation of cowards. Past generations would never have stood for this gross restriction of civil rights and liberties. In essence, every American has been placed on house arrest. Almost every business has been closed down, which is a disaster in the making for small businesses. The problem is enough funding for loans doesn’t really exist for small businesses. The $10,000 Disaster Assistance Loans are only payable to employers of small businesses at a rate of $1,000 for each employee. That $10,000 then becomes a mere $1,000, $2,000 or $3,000. Paycheck Protection Program loans through the bank are not helpful since the banks say they don’t have enough monies, and if you did not have a checking or business account with them prior to the disaster, don’t even bother applying.
