Idiot Democrats could've put this on the table during the first stimulus. When the market was crashing and Republicans we're scared shytless. They probably would've gotten everything they asked for and more because Trump was terrified of being the scapegoat.

Worse party leadership in the history of politics.
Nah, situation wasn't a dire. They would have had to pare a significant amount of it back. Now, with the stakes rising, they have a lot more leverage to demand a far more progressive stimulus than the first bill. :francis:

Funny thing is, if the people refused to go back to work there is a chance for this! They'd have to do this to keep some resemblance of an economy going.

It all hinges on people saying, "I'm not dying on your job".

For the first time in a loooong time the chips are in our corner.

Right now we're the NFL players bringing the Owners to the table. We have a chance of saying there will be no games (economy) unless you meet our demands!

Just as the situation in the NFL however, you have players (these guys in the thread saying hurry and send us back to work I have mansions to pay for) who are too shortsighted to recognize the opportunity.

Here's the problem people.

We have a chance to give people a little breathing room, but some are too shortsighted and indoctrinated.

Facts! Corporate slaves and owners who care about their business over their worker's well being. They wont even sanitize the establishment or even enforce social distancing or provide masks or gloves for their workers.

Guaranteeing nationwide vote-by-mail to make sure elections don't contribute to the spread of COVID-19.

This is what trips me out the most. You're in ground zero and you can't get the proper protection needed to do your job safely.

"But but OSHA:damn:"

My ass.

An embarrassment :wow:

Courts are going to be tied up for a few years at minimum now.

But I definitely see lawsuits happening.

They need to go with AOC idea that anything in income over $10 million gets taxed at a 70% rate. Then they could do it. Think about it who really needs to make over $10 million a year anyway?
What?!? I wish tf someone would tax 70% of my money. That is absurd!!!

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.
That's why when nighas all in the Democrats ear with that reparations bullshyt...the candidates will entertain the idea and pander for the votes



When in reality nikkas been gettim handouts from dems since LBJ...

N they got receipts
