Stimulus & Bailout Watch Thread

The reality is both democrats and Republicans are offering up ways to address the current pandemic in the US.

We don't always have to pretend like Republicans never have good ideas just to prove we're good Democrats or good progressives.

You know how I know you are a corporate paid neoliberal shill?

Any source or links ????

Yall dudes on the first page just went off, yall aint got a source a link a quote or nothing



yall claim the coli infiltrated with white boys spies russians but yet yall dont even ask for a source yall just take a person word and run with it.

 

[Robbie3000]

Republicans control the white house. Don't get caught up on a grammar troll.



All of this is just your personal opiniona and a lot of fantasy.

Many Americans were happy with the sick leave bill.

That got the ball rolling.

Pelosi then immediately pivoted to an economic stimulus.

Spoiler

This is when Trump was still pushing a payroll tax cut to stimulate the economy. That was hit plan.

Spoiler

Democrats gave a hard pass and said Americans need money in their pockets now.

Spoiler: Tweet proof

Republicans complained saying dems were being hypocrites because they supported Obama's payroll tax cut.

As of yesterday Donald Trump is still pushing everything you've been complaining about.

Spoiler

The call for cash was brought up by Mitt Romney as a response to dem rejecting the Trump proposal.

So basically everything you're saying the dems should have done, they did by stonewalling the initial proposal that was a handout to big businesses and a payroll tax that would do very little for regular people. That led directly to Republicans being willing to offer up cash.

This is from politico

House Democrats have long said the payroll tax cut was a nonstarter but were also lukewarm to the idea of just doling out cash payments. When a former economic adviser to President Barack Obama raised the idea privately to Democrats last week, Pelosi shot down the suggestion saying she didn’t want to write checks to millionaires.



Romney was ahead of the Dems in calling for direct cash stimulus to individuals.

Kennedy made his proposal after Trump signaled for direct stimulus to individuals.

Cut the bullshyt spin.

PPL WHO HAVE GOOD JOBS
PAY MORE FOR RENT/MORTGAGE, CARS, ENTERTAINMENT ETC
THAN LOWER INCOME FAMILIES.

YOUR UNEDUCATED STATEMENT ONLY
HOLDS TRUE IF THE PPL WITH GOOD JOBS
AND THE LOWER INCOME PPL
WERE PAYING THE SAME AMOUNT ON MONTHLY EXPENSES.

MY RENT IS MORE THAN SOME PPL
TAKE HOME FROM WORK IN A MONTH.

That’s something to brag about?

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

Why we discussing 1k like it's gonna change shyt whether you get it or not?

 

[knickscity]

Its about making sure everyone can afford to self isolate. Those of yall talking about not giving a check to people who dont pay taxes are missing the point. If they still gotta go outside, they will keep spreading the virus defeating the entire purpose...

It should go to every citizen of the united states. Fuq the bullshyt, and stipulations. If you are an American, you qualify for the check.

 

[Tribal Outkast]

All this over a 1,000 check? We shouldn’t even be in this mess in the first place

 

[cobra]

If you aren’t laid off, you shouldnt be be getting any money

 

[Ezekiel 25:17]

I'm seeing that we'll get 2 separate checks $1000 each. Hate to say it, but I'm holding onto those and if everything passes it's going towards my Discover. So close to being debt free

 

[Cat piss martini]

the rich shouldnt get shyt.

I've said it plenty of times but I'll say it again....coli nikkas can find a way to hate on a free lobster dinner now they hating on a free stack. You can't make this shyt up.

Thats what im saying

Speak for yourself. I have a few months worth of expenses saved up and another grand is like working another 2 1/2 days. Thats not nothing, especially if its multiple rounds of it.

And im in a good position. For people making far less, its a godsend.

 

[UberEatsDriver]

I'm looking at the democrats like


Why do niccaz always gotta be super poor to get anything, they trying to say the cut off is 65k fucc the dems



Only Corey booker was saying it should go to everyone on the dem side.


They gonna make a nicca switch sides for real with this 65k and under bullshyt, good thing Republicans are in control over this

Weird viewpoint
