Mike Rowe: There is no such thing as a nonessential worker
Former Dirty Jobs host Mike Rowe spoke out this week about the “other” victims of the coronavirus and argued, "there is no such thing as a nonessential worker.”
"Most of the country is going to come through this with the realization we're being treated like children ... by people who want us to look at them as parents," Rowe said during an interview with Glenn Beck on the Blaze.
"In an economy like this, when you take 26 million 'nonessential' workers out of the equation ... the whole thing collapses under its own weight," he said. "I would suggest to you right now that there is no such thing as a nonessential worker when it comes to the economy," Rowe added in response to certain workers being deemed "nonessential" during the virus crisis and not allowed to work.
Rowe touched on a sentiment that has been growing across the country in places such as California and Michigan, where residents have started pushing back against coronavirus lockdowns they believe to be draconian and calls for states to allow people back to work have been intensifying.
Being treated like children and We The People are getting damned sick of it. Time for a change.
