This is only going to get worse. The only way to stave off a total collapse of our economy is through #directcashrelief. As usual the compassionate thing to do is the smart thing to do. cnbc.com/2020/08/28/mgm-reso…

No, open the economy and let people go back to work.

There will be no more relief to regular people or small businesses. As long as Republicans are in control millionaires and billionaires will get richer. Everyone else will suffer.

It bears pointing out that MGM Resorts is the largest employer in NV.

Maybe a significant collapse was bound to happen due to our collectively focus on money and buying more stuff. May we find a way through these trying times.

Well we can thank Congress for non action as usual. Federal benefits for unemployed without minimum state requirements for start. You shouldn't have to jump through hoops to get help. Where is Congress? Fine because they have jobs and security. It's terrible.
Support what is really important. Casinos are not important. Important: Farm workers, organic food, green spaces, art, music, art in public spaces...

MGM more likely than not gave ginormous amounts of cash to both the RNC & DNC so nothing would fundamentally change for them as they layoff their workers.
Horrifying. 18k is a scary number to just dump into the system. Those poor families. I had all 3 of my jobs snatched away by #COVID19

Federal reserve can only pump so much stimulus into Wall street instead of Main street.
