Democrats ain't going for it either.

:lolbron:

They'd send everyone back to work and deal with the virus before they'd pass any of that shyt.

Add a few trillion for corporations and maybe they might consider it.
:francis:



Democrats are the ones who proposed it agent

:wow:
  • Monthly direct cash payments of at least $2,000 to every adult in the U.S., and an additional $1,000 for every child for up to a year;
  • A nationwide moratorium on all evictions and foreclosures;
  • At least $30,000 in student debt relief;
  • Suspending collection of all consumer debt, including medical debt;
  • Opening Medicare to all people who are unemployed and uninsured;
  • Ensuring that no one in the U.S. faces out-of-pocket costs for COVID-19 treatment;
  • Increasing federal nutrition assistance benefits;
  • Creating a "federal Paycheck Guarantee program" to stop mass layoffs; and
  • Guaranteeing nationwide vote-by-mail to make sure elections don't contribute to the spread of COVID-19.

Here's what I would change about that.
  • Monthly direct cash payments of at least $2,000 to every adult in the U.S., and an additional $1,000 for every child for up to a year, < 75k; 1k a month only, < 100k.
  • $50k max in student debt relief
  • No increase in federal nutrition assistance benefits
  • No federal Paycheck Guarantee program
The rest I'd keep as is.

Now I'm starting to see why Republicans say all democrats want is a bunch of free shyt. There is some truth to that. People want to go back to work. No matter how much pandering the progressives do and the attempts from the Democrats to buy votes they're still going to lose.

Give everyone 2,000 and you have a child 1,000 and then Creating a "federal Paycheck Guarantee program" to stop mass layoffs.
