  1. Your excuse making never fails to disappoint. Yep, the devil is always in the details. In the real world it's called bait and switch.

    The bait and switch includes a bunch of other shit beyond the 2k$ check though? (minimum wage, jobs, etc...)

  3. A fair assumption, for now.

    He won the democrat nomination faster than Clinton,Obama or Clinton,kicked Trumps ass by 7 milion votes and got the most votes ever..while mostly from his basement.Thats some serious political ass kicking.

    As far as being a criminal,Trump is far more likely to be behind bars than Biden ever will be.

  6. Exactly. Let's just focus on a relief package for Covid. You see, it's when then bundle all this crap together knowing full well that it will create a food fight in Congress it leads people to believe they are not serious about solving the actual problem at hand. This is what also feeds the Covid ain't that serious belief because if it was so fucking serious then they would actually address the problem first hand without all the political gamesmanship. It just never changes with these guys, never.

  7. They should be pissed. He isn't even in office yet and the games begin. Just take care of the people being hurt by Covid. Job one. Jesus, just once I'd like to be pleasantly surprised, just one fucking time.

    Definitely needs to cut this shit down.IMO far to much money has been spent on this already.Extending regular unemployment benefits (no extra 3-4 hundred a week) beyond their normal time limit is all that should have been spent on this imo.

    The system is optimized to move money upward, not downward.

    I am with you on this. The majority of people don't need direct payments. With the last round of direct payments; 40% of people merely put the money in the bank, 30% spent the money on "wants" such as large screen T.V.s order online, and only 30% spent the money locally.

    They should allocate the COVID relief money to people who are unemployed or underemployed due to COVID -- and increase the unemployment payments to match what they previously earned (but not go above it) -- extending the payment timeline for up 52 weeks minimum.

    Likewise most of the PPP money given to corporations were a waste. PPP loans/grants should be limited to small businesses with not more than $2M in revenue.
