I'm right there with with you Jonas. It may not be a "good look" for some businesses flush with cash to take advantage of the PPP money, but I would argue that any business that did NOT take the PPP money (and use it per the requirements) was negligent.

I believe this is an inaccurate statement. Do you have a source for this statement?

How can one miss the point of this so entirely. There's only two options on the rant. It's either full prosperity nonsense or its ascetic gospel.
There’s only two options regarding Christ. Either it’s on track or off track. It’s right or it’s wrong.

My point was that you misunderstanding the point of a verse and the following misapplication of it doesn't make you right.

I'm not religious by any stretch, but did he break the law? The real issue here is that the government forced the economy to shut down and then decided to give away money to compensate for said shutdown because we live in a clown world. He may be a piece of shite, but unless he broke the law, I don't fault him one bit. You throw money on the table don't be surprised when someone takes it. The issue was shutting down the economy in the first place creating this scenario, otherwise this wouldn't be having this conversation.

Any billionaire who doesn't take advantage of a food bank is being negligent!

I told yall this is the most corrupt thing to ever happen in America. And Trump voting morons just love to cheer for this corruption It will all come out soon enough all the conservatives who got government money.

Not really a fair comparison but I can see where you are coming from. One is a government subsidy that had no "need based" aspect to it, expressed or implied. This is where they really screwed up with the program in my opinion. It was done in such a rush that it opened the floodgates wide open.
I admittedly don't have much experience with food banks, but they are usually run by private charities and while they may not turn anyone away, there is a definite implication of it being for those that need it. Some may even require proof of the need.

I don't like Osteen but this is silly to be upset about.
I'm not mad Trump only pays $15 or whatever it was in taxes.

No Jesus
I noticed a long long time ago that Joel is frightened to death to mention Jesus, and pretty much avoids using the Bible in his sermons.
Ya gott'a wonder why, or at least I do.

Churches and political campaigns should not be tax exempt. That's the biggest frick you to hard-working Americans.

Your point is missed because you failed at showing how it misses the mark.
