Stealing from those who save for spending not actually allowed by the Constitution.

FDR’s lawlessness is complete and all it took was scared people forgetting that the business of America is business, not being safe.

The union that represents public sector workers will stress that without more funding, its members will be laid off or furloughed


Oh Dear Lord, No! Not that. Not public sector workers! Please say this is all a bad dream!

Good opportunity to brake the public employee’s union. There shouldn’t be a national public employee’s union in this country and there damned sure better not be a public funded bailout for it. Get rid of the AFLCIO, period! If there is to be unions, they should be in-house individual businesses unions comprised of employees of said business only.

Stop the lockdown and open up the economy and we won’t need federal bail out debt.

Tell Robby Soave that the ISD’s need to be dismantled and the property owners refunded their school tax.

That’s what I’m waiting for. We are paying for empty schools, parked school busses and wages of people who are doing absolutely nothing for their check. Actually that’s a good thing. They’re just like congress- the less they do the better off we are. They have overdemanded their welcome.

Ask Nancy Pelosi for the money. She just made $6 million on Amazon stock. That’s a start anyway.

I heard that the “key atomic benefits office of mankind”, also known as KABOOM, also wants some money

That was in the naked gun 2 and a half :-)

It’s about time these people had skin in the game. If the money is not there, they need to be laid off like the rest of America’s workers. If closed businesses and laid-off workers can’t generate tax revenue, these government employees have to be likewise kicked to the curb to join the others who are suffering.

Hey I’m all for it, but what about people paying property taxes that don’t have kids in school?

I worked for a city for 15 years and can tell you there are people on the payroll that we didn’t know what they did. The administrator that oversaw my guys had a degree in hospitality and did know anything about water distribution.
