And liberals would jump for joy! Seriously, they hate the evil stock market.

I wonder if they’d really go with “free” 2,000 a month. I could use it. Lol.

I’m already planning on that contingency. I’m buying critical stuff like a bigger freezer, back up generators, shopping for a vehicle that makes more sense than my old Toyota. Suggestions appreciated.
