Biden announces program to give 'direct relief' to restaurants impacted by the Covid pandemicPresident Biden announces Covid-19 relief for restaurants: 'The Restaurant Revitalization Fund will provide direct relief to restaurants and the hard hit food establishments ... businesses that get grants can use it to cover payroll, rent, utilities.' Stop wasting taxpayers money. Just let them open all the way back up. They will be okay I bet fast food giants like McDonald’s will get there cut. Even firing 25-40% of there staff or cutting there hours to 2-3 days a week. And that money goes straight to the CEO and upper management. Cause there greedy. Can we link this to a permanent increase in wages $2.33 an hour is a joke.
