It does for democrats. The fed gets richer, and democrat supporters get more pork.

True.

At least Rand has said he wont vote for any. He sets an example to his colleagues.

The bigger the bill the more taxpayer money is on the loose for Democrat pickins. Of course they don’t want a Billion dollar bill IF they can get a Trillion.

Find out how many churches around have been making more in “payroll protection” than they collect from those they serve. I found out there are churches tanking millions. To not go into the world. I know there is a way to find out. Expose the money changers and drive them out.

So many of my airline pilot friends are telling me their only hope is another $30-35 Billion from the taxpayers (CARES Act 2.0).

Airlines And Crew Unions Are Pushing For A CARES Act 2.0

There are a lot of people hurting in this nation. The airlines got a huge portion of the CARES Act 1.0 money. I realize that we all "Look out for #1" - ourselves. But their salaries have been paid for 6 months now, and most of them have not been flying.

How do you justify that to the other 57 million Americans who have lost their jobs?

I absolutely agree.

It's amazing, but Capitalism in it's pure form does not exist any longer.

Instead, we have "bailouts." Of banks, of corporation, of businesses, and even of other governments.

All of it - fueled by more debt accumulated in just a few short years - compared to the rest of thousands of years of all humanity.

It's all going to crash - spectacularly.

We will always need airlines...

I think some of them have overstretched and may go bankrupt.

Someone will buy up the assets and run them better.

This is how it should work IMO!
