ThailandRyan Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 But not red cent for the unemployed and laid off from Covid and the shutdown by the Government. Who the f is going to go to those events and where the f is that money going to go to. The f ing rich get richer and the poor get poorer and more suicides and death occurs because this government does not care 1 bit for the people in the country....sheesh. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
