Does that tell you anything? The Communist Party elites get FREE STUFF while the working class have the rug pulled out from under them and they can't afford to eat in a world of inflated food prices... those 10,000 workers many of whom were feeding their kids... will now be missing meals.

How can that be... ask the Democrats who created this mess. -- -That's karma-
