Trump said we need to bail out big companies because otherwise it will be too hard for them to start up again later. No. Our approach should be the opposite. We should be bailing out individuals, not big companies. Now more than ever we need bottom up, not trickle down economics.

Trump basically admitted that "small business" is the engine of America. Yet he does the opposite of helping them. He's indicated he wants to get checks and aid to the working and struggling, yet he does the opposite. This is our wake up call to pay attention what the truth is.

They already bailed out these corporations they should have a big savings for making them filthy rich from tax breaks.

Yep, be more like Iceland. Help common folks. The rich always take care of themselves. They don't need the help.

And if we spend our money with the big companies they stay, if we buy local, Main Street stays. Let us choose. Trust us with the dollars. The game of life will still make you relevant. But Democracy Dollars will help with that.

No one is going to be taking a cruise or staying in hotels when they can't even pay their f**cking bills.

I love you, I am a Berner, but Marianne, this is not 2008 & this is wrong. Imagine if all small biz in Weho forced to close--dentists, barbers, shops etc. So many job losses. So much capital loss. Litigation... When social distancing time passes, need an econ to which to return
