We’re fighting for a $2000 one time payment, and even that is essentially crumbs. It should have been $2000 a month from the beginning of the pandemic, lasting through the end of it. No other advanced country has seen its people so systematically neglected during the pandemic.

It may keep your car another month, hardly anyone has been pay Rent, mortgage, what is going to hold it all together for all of us when the money comes due and no one has it to pay the lenders.

Then stop voting for people who systemically neglect you.

They seem to be tearing the social contract before our very eyes and seem not to realize that it's the only thing standing between us and them.

But why help people when you can prattle about bipartisanship.
Replying to @marwilliamson @scottsantens
You are right, Marianne, and we Americans have just passively allowed and taken such neglect. It wasn't all that long ago when the entire government of Finland nearly fell for even trying to suggest that its citizens benefits be marginally cut, yet Americans just allow 1/2

The unemployment benefit was more than that. And it was every week. It expired because the Republicans blocked it but has now been renewed at a lower level in a compromise. Stop spreading misleading information.

Democrats suck as bad as Republicans. When are the lemmings going to figure it out?

Just wait till Congress passes the $15 an hour minimum wage law. The jobs will start dropping like flies replaced by more and more efficient technologies. How can 20th century solutions help 21st century? We need UBI! #UBI 🙏🌏

Every. Single. Democrat. For a $15/hr minimum wage should be advocating for monthly $2400 checks at the minimum $15/hr × 40hrs/wk × 4wks/mth = $2400 It's beyond shameful Democrats are not fighting for more for the people. Instead are making excuses why less is better.
