Jen Psaki Expertly Explains to Fox Information’ Peter Doocy Why People Are Scared to Return to Work

White House Press Secretary Jen Psakiwas again forced to clarify some very basic questions to the Fox News reporter Peter Doocy.

Doocy asked many questions Monday afternoon, insisting that American workers stay home rather than return to work because, in his opinion, “the unemployment benefits are so good”.

Citing “the majority of internal and external economists,” Psaki said unemployment benefits do not keep workers at home.

“We don’t see a lot of evidence that supplemental unemployment insurance is a major cause of people not re-entering the workforce,” Psaki told Doocy. “Our analysis shows that the lack of vaccinations … has an impact, childcare has an impact, and school reopening has an impact.” an impact, but there is also a need to pay livable wages. “

This “lack of vaccination” is largely the direct result of Fox News anti-Vaxxer personalities like Tucker Carlson and Laura Ingraham.

Minutes later, however, Doocy answered his own questions, noting that Commerce Minister Gina Raimondo says “the main reason people stay home is fear”.

But then he asked, “How does the White House know people are afraid? What is that based on? “As if a global pandemic that spreads through the air through infected people and has killed nearly 600,000 Americans is nothing to fear.

At that point, Psaki was again forced to explain some very basic questions to him.

“Well, I think she was referring to the fact that there was a much lower vaccination rate a month ago and that people are afraid of getting sick, they are afraid of whether they will have the conditions to be healthy, whether they can send their children to a day care center to see if there is a day care center. These are all factors that are consistent with the examples and reasons I just gave. “
