When the economy gets you down, just throw truckloads of taxpayer cash at it. At least, that’s what MSNBC Anchor Chris Hayes says Congress should do. Hayes sent out his policy prescription on Twitter in the early morning of March 13: “I increasingly convinced we need Congress to pass a trillion dollar stimulus in the next week, focused on people not industry bailouts. Probably best just direct cash.”

Why do these leftist morons want to burden their children and their grandchildren with paying for our follies?

Yeah, because the previous one trillion dollar stimulus packages and trillion dollar bailouts really didn’t do shit for our economy and massively increased our debt. The stimulus in particular got turned into a pork based political inside funneling job.

Someone said 3 thousand to every person over18. I say go for it. We’re bankrupt anyway. The “poor” has destroyed this country with the help of the liberals.

The restaurant, airline, hospitality and cruise line businesses are going to be down sharply until an anti-coronavirus drug or vaccine is deployed.

People who lose their jobs need to file for and get unemployment insurance. Futile job searching should not be required by any state.

So, let’s take $1T from tax payers and give it back to them. Or, do you really mean, Let ME (the politicians) take $1T and decide who gets the money. It seems to me this is just another let-me-spend-the-cash-and-buy-some-votes-to-keep-me-in-office program, like the free cell phone vote-buying scam.

I’m all for that idea. Close the CDC and give the money back to us. What diseases have they controlled and/or prevented?

If you are using Brian Williams math, yes, that would be about what it would be

What would you do with your billion dollars?
