Weird how $300/week in unemployment is a "handout" but $1.9 trillion in tax cuts, $800 billion in PPP and trillions to prop up the stock market is a "stimulus"

Without large companies most jobs will disappear. Also, tax cuts aren't handouts. It's literally just stealing less from you.

EDUCATION! ... EDUCATION! ... EDUCATION! ... On the campaign trail you took the time to educate the people that came to see you ... It's the missing link in just about everything!

PPP funds were used to continue paying employees who worked through the state-mandated lock-downs which was preferable to additional layoffs and shudowns. not sure why it is on your list of stimulus funds you hate.

@marwilliamson I am watching Who Bombed Judi Bari, about activists who helped save ancient redwood trees. Have you seen it? Thank you for being an activist for Love. Keep up the amazing work and thank you.

If they give it to poor and middle class people, that's "Socialism". If they give it to millionaires and billionaires, that's an "stimulus to create jobs" BTW, they get their stimulus, and then they let people go.
