What they should have done was a plan of short-term debt deferral. Any long term obligation (e.g., mortgages, car loans, rent, student loans, perhaps even credit card debt over some amount ($200??)) would be pushed out 90 days. At that time, debt payments resume. This would have allowed the existing Unemployment Compensation system to handle the food, utilities, etc. daily expenses. True, the UC system is swamped, but they could hire temporary workers to process claims. With the current method, you get stuff like we see coming from Binden and other Democrats that push us faster and faster down the road to Socialism.
Here is one that even the democrats did not think of. There are people who are seasonally employed. Such as Lawn Maintenance, Lawn mower repair, ect... Those people would normally be going back to work right now. But they can’t. So they are jobless, and they can’t collect unemployment either because they were not working at the start of this.
So what is happening with the $2 trillion relief bill congress already passed?
However if a seasonal employee was working for a Ski lodge then they would normally be laid off just after all of this began. They can now collect unemployment plus get the extra 600 a week for a long time to come.
Just re-open the damn economy, putz.
Yeah, great idea..let’s just print more money and hand it out to people.
What could possibly go wrong?
Hes a puppet with a stick up his arse.
Keep em unemployed til November. When magically they virus won’t matter.
so, we now turn to that age old question: if joe biden said something stupid or irrelevant in a forest but no one cared, does he make a sound?
“Federally funded” my rear! It’s “Taxpayer funded.”
