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.

Marianne, if you're not already an official campaign surrogate for @BernieSanders , you'd make a terrific one. Nothing compares to you. Your comrade, Krapp

No such thing as trickle down economics, but thank you for reminding U.S. you are part of the establishment.

But these people are not interested in helping the American people they're only interested in keeping the rich rich they do not want people on and even playing field

1 time 1200 payment isn’t going to do jack shit! They will be broke again in a week! They need jobs not bail outs

We need both, else a ~$2,000-per-individual bailout will provide runway for planes with ripped-off wings, no?

Gov should buy the companies if they want bailout. Capitalists should be familiar with the term hostile takeover? But I guess maybe not when it's happening to them

The bailouts will not stop the firings or layoff. Business doesn't work that way. Think about it.

The importance of large corporations at this time is not about money or profits; but that we rely on them for the supply of most of our daily life support needs.
Too big to fail-- from their yachts in Majorca?
