| The American people need a lobbyist who can work with Congress on their behalf. Politicians want to get re-elected and need money to do it and work on behalf of industry who gives them money. Meanwhile the average Joe and Jane citizen is scrambling to get unemployment and waiting in miles long lines to get food from food banks while hoping they don’t catch a horrible virus for which they have no health insurance to cover treatment. |
| The Dems have the people right where they want them. They just need to get their guy voted in for Prez and the free market, as we know it, will be gone. Get ready for food stamps and equal pay for all. |
I prefer that to death, destruction and consolidation of wealth into an oligarchy. |
I know. Seems that more and more people are willing to bow down to this idea as we continue to receive a barrage of scare tactics from our governments news media outlets. The problem is that we can no longer be a nation that leads, with this model. We would have to give that power over to China. I don’t think Russia is strong enough to lead. They have their own issues they can’t get past. OR we stop with the B.S. and believe in the American ingenuity. People just need to be pointed in the right direction and they would then take it from there. We know how to make things work when given the chance. But we need to open back up and let the people get creative and put their processes in place at their business. My 2 cents. |
| Three trillion when tax revenues are sinking like a stone because of unemployment on the rise? I think not. |
Just like W's tax cuts when the government was about to spend trillions on military action abroad? Hypocrites. |
I think so. Go big or go ... We're already at home. Powell told us what the economy needs. Do you know better than him? |
| Because even sane Democrats know there will be a gigantic price to pay. There are no free lunches. US debt has gotten out of control since 2008. Significant tax increases to address the issue will be required in the future. It's that or else giant spending programs like social security and medicare will require cuts. All of those options are politically unpalatable. They are coming though. |
Stimulus money for illegal immigrants? Hell no. |
So you do know better than Powell. |
| Absolutely ZERO dollars should be handed out to illegal immigrants. Why is this even being proposed? Stop rewarding law breaking behavior. Democrats claim they're not for open borders, yet they give illegal immigrants access to drivers licenses, schools, free health care, public services in their native language, paths to citizenship that circumvent UCIS, and now want to give them stimulus money. It's truly insane. Why do we have autonomy at all? Why should anyone integrate and come here legally of all you do is reward them for coming here illegally and make their lives cushy for them? Everything the Democrats do screams open borders despite what they may claim on the podium. Absolutely NO stimulus money for people who aren't permanent residents here legally or who aren't citizens. |
Gee, maybe we should not have enacted trillion dollar tax cuts instead of saving up for this day. Pandemics are hard to predict, but recessions are inevitable. |
Yes. |
