People have been economically crushed for so long they’re too exhausted to even express outrage. This can only have tragic results, for them and for the country.

The lack of urgency from both major parties when it comes to delivering aid to regular people during the worst economic crisis maybe ever will go down in history.

I agree, we need to start slashing taxes and reopen the economy immediately!

Right, slashing taxes on the rich is really going to help the poor. After 40 years of trickle down economics devastating the middle class and creating the largest income inequality in 100 years, you’re still mouthing that malicious nonsense?

Obama and the billionaires forcing #BernieSanders out of the race AGAIN after a million people canvassed, phone banked, rallied, and donated the money they did have, to elect #Bernie was TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE we haven’t EVEN BEGUN to express our rage. Calm comes before the storm.

Both parties stopped talking about relief for a month. Trump has failed the working class, the farmers, America’s small businesspeople. #Medicare4All #UBI #COVID19 testing #equal education #equal pay #GreenEnergy development What’s Possible? Us! #YesRising

Yes. People numb will stop fighting. They need to get $2000 pm per adult done. Apart from the obvious human need, economists love it as it builds consumer spending - people with money can pay rent and buy stuff.

and this is why it's important people start moving to progressive parties and stop supporting the "lesser evil" #GreenParty2020

I've been saying this for years, but I have no platform. Finally, a decent (more than decent!) politician/leader/sage is doing so. Many thanks.
