Perhaps you are not aware of it, but many businesses these days are having 
staffing problems.
The culprit are all the stimulus checks, payments for kids, and the 
expanded unemployment benefits.
Many lower income workers have lost the incentive to work (or it doesn't 
pay for them to work) thanks to the ill-conceived politician plans to buy 
votes.
Amazon no longer promises 2-3 day shipping to Prime customers, many fast 
food operations have closed their dining rooms doing business now through 
the drive up windows,
and, perhaps the most absurd thing I can think of, is on a recent Green 
Bay Packers broadcast, Palermo Pizza not advertising their frozen pizzas 
but seeking people to apply to work at their plants. 
Perhaps Vispero is experiencing that same thing and the continued barking 
by pols for higher minimum wages only hurts this situation.

It's not a pretty world out there from a business standpoint; and it's    
not surprising that blind technology companies may be seeing harder times.

Pray for the U.S. to right its way and place the interests of Americans 
first and foremost.
