In more than a decade on the old Hannity.com board, and an occasional drop in to this new format…
I can say with significant certainty that this is the dumbest thread in the history of these forums.
Allow me to summarize…a big government left wing socialist started a thread taking advantage of perhaps the most extreme national health emergency of our lifetime to claim that the private sector and free market which is the heart and soul of our great nation just can’t be trusted because of the once in a lifetime extreme moment we are living in. The socialist who started the tread conveniently ignores all the work the private sector is doing to support the government in this unique time…and the millions of Americans who are collectively sacrificing for the greater good.
I personally think this thread is an award winner folks…in the history of the old Hannity.com and now this new format this is the single dumbest thread ever!
I’m wrong your right or I’m right your wrong deserves a round of applause kids! Then we should all just ignore this foolishness.
Speaking of $1200, it just so happens that I happen to be in a good place financially and my job security is not in question as my company cannot really operate without me or someone with my skills.
That being said I’ve got a huge silver maple tree in my front yard I’ve been clamoring to have removed for 2 years now. Had several bids submitted and they are all in the 1200 range. I just could not get myself to part with 1200 I had in savings. But now I know exactly where that check is going to, and I dont have to feel bad because that money was tax I already paid into the government.
As a bonus a local tree service will get some financial support from me in the form of work.
You mean the one who’s gonna bail out airliners, send direct checks to people, run possibly $3trillion deficits because the private markets aren’t able to figure out COVID-19 themselves?
Juxtapose it with this. Looks like all you cons agree with me that people shouldn’t get paid for not doing anything, even if it’s the government’s fault
You guys have been yelling at others to bootstrap for a decade plus. Just get a new job or go get some new skills. I have 12 months expenses saved. I’m responsible.
Oh wait, now that cons are in a situation that’s out of their control they want handouts
No, I don’t even know how you got that idea. I assumed you were laughing at the author of that post.
I just chose to finish your thought with what those people who actually may receive those checks and why they would take them.
I’m not “impacted heavily” by this. I still can work with my students via computer and am getting paid. Hubby is an essential employee and is still getting paid although their hours have been cut to 40 hours a week (yes he works more than 40 hours every week). Money wise, we are fine.
I am aware of many people who are not however and that $1200 is going to help them due to the fact they now have no income due to mandated closings by the govt.
It truly is not a laughing matter for some people.
