Hopes were high after the Senate and the White House announced they had reached a deal on a $2.2 trillion economic stimulus package for Americans affected by the Wuhan coronavirus. But those hopes fizzled out after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi threatened another delay on the vote. Then four Republican senators noticed a "massive drafting error" that would result in "a strong incentive for employees to be laid off instead of going to work."
But there were more issues where those came from. Sen. Bernie Sanders saw the Republicans' threat and raised them one of his own. In his eyes, the current bill is one big corporate bailout.

Stupid reporter...”hopes were high”? For another big government boondoggle?
2 trillion of our money and passing it around at their whim, carving out stuff for themselves.
Keynesian never works.
It's also where perhaps the most important part of who and what we are resides- our memory. The memory of getting up out of bed, knowing where we are, getting washed, dressed for the day,have breakfast, think about what we will be doing for the day ahead. Remembering how to get washed, dressed, cook breakfast and make a pot of coffee. And remember to turn off the burner on the stove when we're done. And to remember who we are, who that man or woman is who is always with us, smiling at us, caring for us laughing with us and crying with us sometimes too. And sleeping next to us every night for all the years we can remember ,letting us feel safe, warm and loved. Remembering so much of all that life once was, our live , our children and farther back to the halcyon days of our youth. When the frontal lobe begins to deteriorate all those memories begin to evaporate. The simple things like know what a tooth brush is, where the coffee is kept in the kitchen.. Where the kitchen even is and most of all- who are and where are we? For an elderly person with dementia episodes like this can be terrifying.
Go for it Bernie! Explain to those unemployed people why you wont send them the money they need! LOL
Cognitive habits? Lol. As we live from day to day and year to year we DO develop habits. We use our BRAINS when we do that; therefore ALL behavior is "cognitive."
Stroke and dementia usually go hand in hand.
However, Alois Alzheimer changed the world view of dementia.

On November 3, 1906, a clinical psychiatrist and neuroanatomist, Alois Alzheimer, reported A peculiar severe disease process of the cerebral cortex to the 37th Meeting of South-West German Psychiatrists in Tubingen, He described a 50-year-old woman whom he had followed from her admission for paranoia, progressive sleep and memory disturbance, aggression, and confusion, until her death 5 years later. His report noted distinctive plaques and neurofibrillary tangles in the brain histology. It excited little interest despite an enthusiastic response from Kraepelin, who promptly included Alzheimer's disease in the 3ih edition of his text Psychiatrie in 1910. Alzheimer published three further cases in 1909 and a plaque-only variant in 1911, which reexamination of the original specimens in 1993 showed to be a different stage of the same process, Alzheimer died in 1915, aged 51, soon after gaining the chair of psychiatry in Breslau, and long before his name became a household word.
Alzheimer's disease is NOT genetic. It is, for all intents and purposes, self-inflicted. People give up, stop caring about life. Their memory, emotional control and cognitive thinking fail...all together, it seems.
And there is no cure. There are some medications but they don't do so much.
#34. Marxists flooded Vermont in the early 70’s and took over many small townhalls, then got their people elected to the state legislature and as governor (Bernie). Had help from the leftist governor Madelaine Kuhnin? If I recall correctly, she hired leftists Chicago 7 defendant John Froines (?) as the head of the state’s environmental health office and he brought along DC Marxist Lee Webb to help him. David Dellinger, another Chicago 7 alumni and hardcore red, moved to Vermont.
The Marxist “North Star” magazine from the 1990’s or late 80’s had a long article on how the reds took over a lot of Vermont through the Bernie Sander’s political campaigns (by veteran Marxist worker Eileen/Ellen? Friedman (first name not sure ?).
They also infiltrated New Hampshire and helped turn it Left.
