Essential workers

The coronavirus pandemic demonstrates who the true heroes are, the essential people who keep the country going. It's not bankers or stock traders. It's not celebrities or athletes. It's not powerful politicians. It's doctors, nurses, store clerks, delivery drivers, teachers, farmers... It's "ordinary" people doing "ordinary" jobs.

We should remember this, and remember that everyone deserves a living wage and access to health care and other necessities. This isn't socialism. It's a system where everyone--not just the rich and powerful--is treated with the respect they deserve.
