I suggest a Japanese restaurant with a big bar. A lot of sushi. We have a local one and it's cheap.

Hey! With all the cash I've made lately from side work, I'll buy! :clink:

Besides, it looks like I'll be getting another huge pile of 'free' money from the government I don't need...

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said Monday on Fox News that “if you’re in the farming business right now, this bill forgives 120 percent of your loan based on your race. These people in the Congress today, the House and the Senate on the Democratic side are out of control liberals and God help us all if we don’t check and balance them in 2022.”

It wasn't too long ago that little Lindsey was one of them. Remember when he called Americans "xenophobic" cuz McCain said it? Don't trust a thing Truman Capote's mini-me ever says. He knows damn well the mid-terms aren't going to fix anything.

$7 Trillion is a lot of money, which is I think how much has been drawn on the generational warfare funds over the last year.

Makes me wonder about inflation.

As Leftist wastes of money go that bill isn't even close to the worst excesses Progressives have made. Yes, it's terrible, spends insane money that doesn't exist, isn't going to do any of the things it's champions claim and is a total waste, but that's what makes it so Progressive!

learn to read, shitnozzle, and maybe you will quit being such a stupid fuck liar. it goes directly to those affected the most by covid in the highest proportion, and it goes to produce and distribute vaccine in the second highest proportion, you stupid fuck liar. If you add up the direct cash payments and the tax cuts for the middle class with kids, it is more than half the entire spending package.

All reputable polling shows 60 to 70 percent of Americans support the Rescue America Act, so that is as mainstream as it gets

What’s not to like about ‘free’ money?

It would be interesting to see a more granular poll on some of the details in the bill like paying for a 15 week vacation for federal workers who are tangentially affected by the CCP Virus. That won’t get abused much lol. Remind me to come back as a teacher or federal worker in my next life.

Nearly 90% of the bill is a handout to liberal interest groups and constituencies. Not hard to see why no republicans voted for it.

You did not corroborate your claims with any link to a credible source which practices the standards of professional journalism.

This bill is wildly popular. Even you will be rushing out to your mailbox or calling the bank every day to see if the money, thanks to Joe Biden, made it's way to you.

Could This Be The Very Worst Piece Of Legislation Ever

Two far more destructive items are the teachers union pay-off and the blue state bail-out. The teachers union pay-off is some $129 billion for K-12 education, which is about a year and a half worth of the pre-existing Department of Education budget, and which is not tied in any way to actually reopening the schools or teaching the kids anything. The basic formula is, contribute a few tens of millions to keep the Democrats in power, and you will be rewarded with a few tens of billions of taxpayer money.

The blue state bail-out is even bigger, at some $500 billion in hand-outs to state and local governments. The red states don’t need any bail-outs, and the blue states wouldn’t either, except that they have been overspending for decades, which was completely unrelated to this pandemic, and then when the virus hit they imposed extended “lockdowns” on the people and created vast amounts of forced and artificial unemployment.


This being strictly an exercise in rewarding supporters and punishing adversaries, the state and local bail-outs will be allocated based on unemployment rate, meaning that the blue states with the high lockdown-based unemployment get the lion’s share. If you are a fiscally-responsible reddish state with a Democratic Senator or two (e.g., Arizona, Georgia, Montana, New Hampshire), your Senators have just sold you down the river.

But I want to focus today on yet another bad idea in this legislation, which is the expansion of something known as the Child Tax Credit.

There is going to be some serious inflation next year onwards.

So, riddle me this genius:

Where is the federal government getting $1.9 trillion to spend on this?

Show me a graph or other sourced data that most of this bill is going to "those affected the most by (Chinese Disease) in the highest proportion" and that "it goes to produce and distribute vaccine in the second highest proportion." Source those so we can see you know what you're talking about.

Because right now, you are the shitnozzle, stupid fuck liar.

My vote isn’t for sale but tell Kamala thanks anyway.
 
Strange the righties did not say a thing when trump passed a tax cut for the rich that cost the same amount of money but scream like little girls when the Dems pass a bill to help the Nation and American People, thinking we know who is OWNED here.
