Short answer ,
Nope. Not even close!!!
I am working on a building on 118 ave, right in the sweet spot in Beverly. The sidewalks were packed today, one of the guys doing the siding was ready to snap, he probably got asked at least 20x if he could spare some cash or smokes. I’m not sure if welfare checks came out yesterday but wow what a difference from 2 days ago. All that money handed out in welfare gets put immediately back into the economy. I even had one gentleman come by, obviously concerned for my well being as he offered to sell me face masks. Not even kidding. Saw another nice lady have a crap in the alley right out the back door of the building we are constructing.
Luckily I had my oldest son with me today (17), he was able to see what no education and no work ethic will lead to first hand, I know it was a real eye opener for him.
