San Diego workers will power-wash streets with a bleach solution in an attempt to stop the spread of Hepatitis A:
At least 15 people have died in San Diego from an ongoing hepatitis A outbreak. In an effort to stop the spread of the viral liver disease, city officials have begun power-washing streets across the downtown area, according to NBC San Diego.
As of Monday, workers dressed in protective white gear and red hard hats were seen outside spraying the sidewalks with a bleach-based liquid in hopes of killing the virus that lives in human feces. "We're probably going to be doing them every other Monday, see how that works out at least for the time being," Jose Ysea, a city spokesman, told NBC San Diego.
The high-pressure power-washing system using bleach will hopefully remove "all feces, blood, bodily fluids or contaminated surfaces," according to a sanitation plan included in a letter delivered to San Diego city officials, the Associated Press reports. For now, just streets in San Diego are being washed, but in the near future hand-washing and street-sanitizing efforts will be implemented in other cities in the region, Dr. Wilma Wooten, the region's public health officer, told the AP.

Ah yes the poor man's view of a the rich man.
I should be a hard working small business owning hyperintelligent ubermench decked out in louis vutton bags, rolexes and bmws. Like it or not I'm a top 1 or 2 percent earner and I fuckoff on the net most of the day and some of the stupidest fucking people on the planet are also rich.
All the vapid pink haired SJWs you hate... all went to yale and harvard to study menstrual painting before moving on to be your new HR director or some other totally undeserved position that entails 3 hours of meetings 2 hours of actual work and lot of twitter and "work from home"
The sooner you shed your misconceptions of the rich and who they are the sooner you can sink into depression and kill yourself. Reality is sad now get back to work you fucking wage slave scum.
