August 27, 2020 “Let not a hired person call out against you”    Ke Seitzei 24:15

The very people who are most helplessly exposed to COVID-19 care for our elderly, staff our supply chains, stock our groceries and produce our take-out meals. They are also the least likely to have paid sick-time and hospitalization, nor, for that matter, retirement or job security. Nor is there much advocacy for these benefits so fundamental to those sheltering-in-place or working at home. Why is that? Before cynicism and complacency set in, we were so compassionate a culture.
