    That is not how you do it. You provide financial help to the poor and middle class. They spend it creating demand. Trump gave 80 percent of the tax cut to the wealthy. That was his chance to increase the wealth gap and boost the plutocracy That is what the Repubs wanted and got .

    Because Pelosi's is so fucking unrealistic. Jammed full of millions of taxpayer dollars for bullshit, not stimulus.

    Not true, she wanted to reimburse State and local Governments for the money they had to allocate to fight the pandemic, hardly bullshit, but it was Mitch who was the obstinate one, even Trump came around pretty close to Pelosi's number, she wasn't the stumbling block

    More like funnel funding to the cities that the looting and rioting Democrats allowed.

    Bullshit. All politicians do the pork-jamming, but Pelosi is the Pork Queen.

    Line-item veto would be good in this instance. Unfortunately it's been ruled unconstitutional and I can see how it could lead to abuse of power by the Executive Branch.

    So it's locked until after the election. When will that be over, by the way?
    Fucking bastards have muddied the waters on when the election is actually over so they can cheat..might should be some hangings for that..but I digress...

    They will cheat very hard in Pennsylvania.
    Trump won it last time, so he should this time.

    I cashed out two weeks ago.

    The markets are going to crash again, and this time they will not be coming back.
    I choose my own words like the Americans of olden times........before this dystopia arrived.

    Interesting take. Do you think low-energy Biden will win?
    I'm all in. I put what I had in at the 2nd Corona downturn. I have faith Trump will win and what I invested in will boom.
    I could have cashed out already if not for Coronavirus.

    I could end up losing some money, that's for sure. It IS a real possibility.

    Why do you not think they'll be coming back?

    If Biden wins, I'm going to need another job to make it through the next year properly.

    It was long ago decided that Trump is not allowed to win.

    Of course the DNC/Revolution is going to win.

    If they get the Senate watch out.

    Its Revolution Time.

    America Dies.

    Oh pray tell, explain it away. I read economics. I follow it. You do not. Fox and Breitbart make you stupider.

    Once in a while you get shown the light, in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

    Uncertainty in the election, so yes, that Biden might win.
