Frankly, I’d prefer they stay away forever.

A lot less damage that way.

I guess maybe they could pay for it by canceling every bit of ‘pork’ still being paid from all their legislation for the last twenty years, stop all welfare and medicare and medicaid programs, Stop all federal pensions donate their own salaries.

But no, they will pay for it by stealing from your children, your grandchildren and their grand children..... Or by resorting to Zimbabwean inflation. Or both, more likely

We can laugh about but they are serious. I truly think that they think they can buy votes,remove the President by blaming him for this all and they ultimately have no concept of money but to spend it because it is not theirs.

and that means putting cash in the hands of hard-working families

The problem is nobody is allowed to be working.

Great idea. And in six months a loaf of bread will cost a couple hundred. Just like Venezuela. Another democrat backdoor plan to turn the country socialist.

It’s bags of opium they’re handing out, disguised to look like money. Just say NO.

Be careful, lots of empty cells now that Dems are letting felons out to keep them safe. Rod Serling could have made an episode out of that logic.

Married couple with 3 kids, both had jobs before COVID, now unemployed:

Man: $500 unemployment (state)
Man: $600 unemployment (federal)
Woman: $500 unemployment (state)
Woman: $600 unemployment (federal)
Man: $2000 (Democrat proposal)
Woman: $2000 (Democrat proposal)
3 kids: $1500 (Democrat proposal)

Monthly income from taxpayers to sit at home and not work: $7,700. That’s just shy of 100 grand annually.

No problem. I’ll run through the store, without a mask, with a machete and threaten to lop some heads off.
That’s got to be a felony ... so let me go! :)

Then of course, the economy will NEVER recover.

This virus is turning into a democrat wet dream, and going to become a new, go-to chapter in their destroy America playbook from now on.

I’ll take it. The first month goes to pick up a new handgun. Month two goes for an AR style rifle. Then a shotgun. After that, I may need to wait a month, then pick up a tack driving precision rifle that can pick a flea off an Antifa goon’s mask at 1,000 yards. If they want to give me the money, it should be used for Constitutional purposes.

Sorry, Nantz....my vote is not for sale until you give up your fortune, your position, and all power you may now hold.

"would expand the payments to $2,000 on a monthly basis until employment returns to pre-crisis levels"

Which might well be never. Just another Marxistocrat scheme for Universal "stay home, sit on your a$$" income.
