what about the millions in the service industry who jobs are already gone.
how are they going to make rent, buy food, etc.
Of course. It satisfies the sadists.
Everyone should be thankful it’s an election year. Had this happened last year cocaine mitch wouldnt have even allowed a bill to get to the floor.

Then don’t give anymore afterward.
But, we still have just as many houses, cars, steel, pineapples and real stuff (as opposed to numbers in computers), we have as much real stuff as we did before.
I’ve always heard that “the market will come back” and it always has.
Since its only numbers in a computer and will get itself better eventually, I wouldn’t worry much. There are enough people how are going to have trouble with real stuff that they get priority, let the markets fix themselves eventually, they can wait.

If an airliner goes out of business because it has no money for expenses and no passengers because of government action, its stock will not “come back”. Its employees will now be looking for those $10 jobs Americans wont do.
(ps. I have no airline stock)

I think it will bounce back. I think the virus did damage but nothing that wont correct itself shortly
Perhaps if McConnell had engaged with the Senate Democrats in the drafting stage it would have been done and dusted by now.
If it was so pressing why did McConnell not engage with the Senate Democrats during the drafting of the bill?

And what happens to the people who die because the states don’t have enough resources?
Do you agree with D Trump when he said that the Federal government should take equity in the corporations that are bailed out? Does the Senate include that provision?
