Please tell me where the Constitution gives the feds power to tell companies what to do with their money.

Man, you guys are on board with this freaking nationalization and disappearance of our individual freedoms.

Sure, as Reagan said, whatever the feds do “for” you, they WILL do TO you. Take the money the feds basically FORCE you to take then they think they have the right to tell you what to do.

The whole thing stinks.

I’m with Benjamin Franklin. “Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.”

The companies volunteered by calling Trump and asked how could they help.

They will make money off of the sales of medical equipment

One company used to make one of the devices.

Yeah, and how was it that Obama made grocery storees to sell bags for ten cents.

Back off of the Chinese/dem/media talking points.

Money offered to companies by government can have strictures or not based on how our reps vote. I want my rep to be able to place restrictions on its use.

For the most part I don’t want company bailouts except to mitigate disasters.

Giving money to companies from the Federal government is not contemplated specifically by he constituents so issues of control aren’t addressed as well. We aren’t talking about controlling their money — we are placing restrictions on actions if they accept OUR money. You have the cash for buybacks but you want our money to fund that buyback.? Not defensible IMHO.
