            <text>Not sure. I am hoping positives like supporting small and local business and looking at the value of those workers we fully depend upon, i.e. grocery store workers, warehouse workers, those that take care of others such as the disabled and elderly. I think they don't get paid and supported enough normally and we need to look at that overall.  I would like to see healthcare change so that if you lose a job due to the pandemic you don't lose your health insurance when it is possibly needed the most.</text>
