There has to be a penalty for not being financially responsible and saving enough to last you at least 1 freaking month.

Seems we are short-sighted and want to bail irresponsible people out every single time chicken little thinks the sky is falling.

People who can't manage to go a month or two need to be reevaluated about their credit worthiness. Would you accept a bailout if it would hurt your credit for the next 3 years?

Would you

People who can pay their mortgages, car notes, credit cards, etc during this time should be rewarded with something.

I own my house and 3 cars.

I don't need good credit for a while.

You don't think those types already have terrible credit?

YES! Credit risk downgrade for 3 years too. Means their credit lines will dry up(be more expensive), certain mutual funds/pensions would not be able to own their stock.

Yes.

The government should punish people more when the government forces them out of work

This makes sense.

So everyone 750 and below is bottomed out?

Seems like an intelligent idea.

Dumbass.

They will be. If you have steady income and savings through this your investments will pay off. Get cheaper stocks. Also I expect things to be less expensive worldwide due less supply of discretionary money.

If you gave cash on the sideline you will be able to get some real bargains this year.

Oh look, another Financial Nanny wagging that Nanny finger at his lessers. Solid lecture and even better condescension for your countrymen. I’m trying to imagine what it’s like to see your neighbors struggling and immediately go into Look How Awesome I Am mode.

You do realize that some people were facing crises or emergencies prior to this, right? People get sick, lose jobs, have accidents every fricking day. So, those people who have been struggling or were using their "rainy day funds" to deal with their standard-regular rainy days are now facing government imposed rainy days.

So you can just frick right off if you think that just because you weren't facing/dealing with something prior to this that no one else was.

The credit agencies and experienced lenders take a look at lots of things when people apply for credit, including job situation, circumstances, score, etc. etc.

We don't need to order them to lower someone's credit score as some sort of punitive measure.
