You want to stimulate the economy? Give $2k/mo till the pandemic ends, retroactively and 3 months past when it’s over, pass #MedicareForAll, #CancelStudentDebt and #RaiseMinimumWage. This country would soar.

You should work with your state governor to run a pilot program for 3 months to test this.

And without those steps the economy will suffer because people will further suffer! The economy is 70% consumer based after all...

This Bill, and the COVID assistance for those under $75K, should help us get over this latest hump. And once the vaccinations really start kicking in, the economy will slowly revive.

All of those are Bernie’s agenda. Biden vowed to veto MFA legislation should it come to him. If we expected to@get all of that we should have voted Bernie.

But Marianne, Congress, the Senate and the POTUS have billionaires, corporations, and lobbyists to please before we see a crumb. The Federal Government is legislating poverty TO the masses, not rescuing them FROM poverty. "Nothing will fundamentally change" -Joe Biden to donors.

All sounds great! But the powers to be want to keep us peasants begging. How are we any different from China when it comes to humanitarian rights?

Debt cancellation is the right solution, but instead of government paying off those ridiculous tuition fees, let the universities and colleges go bankrupt. Let people with huge student debt discharge it in bankruptcy. Then perhaps they can renegotiate payment to something fair.
