Mitt Romney called on the federal government to send every adult $1,000 immediately to help cope financially with the economic damage caused by the spread of the coronavirus.

“Every American adult should immediately receive $1,000 to help ensure families and workers can meet their short-term obligations and increase spending in the economy,” Romney, a Utah Republican senator and 2012 presidential nominee, said in a statement.

Get a Gibson SG, lightest guitar out there, exactly why Derek Trucks says he plays it.

My main guitar is a black Strat that says it was made in Mexico, it's probably fake as hell, has nothing to do with Fender as I only paid $200 for it, but damn, the thing plays like a mofo, never goes out of tune. and the action is unbelievable. My theory is China was making fakes and for some reason this guitar came out perfect. But I'm still going for that Gretsch 12 string.

LOL! On another thought, a lot of Fender stuff is marked........ Corona! Yikes. I have an 82 black out strat with the big head that was probably one of the last big head strats to come out of Fullerton. Maple fretboard and locking tuners. Plays awesome also. Need to clean the pots and switch though. Also have a 65 Epiphone Riviera I bought brand new before I went in the Navy. It gets to come out on occasion. Still sounds good.

Agreed.. if workers just can get their paychecks, even if they sit on most of it now then we the crisis ends, people go back to their 9-5.

I imagine many “those” Republican and libertarian out there have stored more than beans and butt wipes. Likely to gather holes in your head than any tp.

While working in Utah I have been invited to plinking outings 10 to 1 for every invite I have ever gotten in the south. They shoot, and gather bullets to do more than play on the weekends.

It was two weeks at one point in only groups over 250 or so were affected, then they say four weeks and 50 people, now the CDC is up to eight weeks.

If we follow the CDC “guidelines“ it will result in a two month shut down of the entire US economy for all intensive purposes. After 9/11 certain regions, i.e. New York City, we’re heavily affected on a local level four months if not a year But the rest of the country was relatively unaffected. I don’t see how economy can recover after a two month shut down, it will cause even businesses that you thought would never close to go under in my opinion if that occurs.

[Why not $50,000?]

Oooh yeah baby.

Let’s go for a cool $500,000.

I’ve got some cars I want to buy.

Oh, and a trailer home.

And an RV-type trailer.

And a nice truck. Like an F-350 to tow that RV trailer.

Wait, I’m gonna need more like $10 million.

There’s other stuff I want too.

Why not $50,000?

And debt forgiveness, including my mortgage. And all the candy I want. And a pony. And...
