Socialism. No thanks. I don't trust the government to source my gym socks, much less my income. Kick him out the party.

I believe he is proposing something absurd to point out the absurdity of all this shite.

They’re already doing that with the unemployment. Lots of people are getting over 100%.

Both sides see an opening and they're going for the kill shot.

Wouldn’t the $600 per week already come close to doing that?

Its not the Denmark style plan, its the USSR centralized financial plan - total control.

They may have to since state unemployment offices have imploded due to their 40 year old computer systems.

600/wk is probably more. I would expect the median wage to be somewhere in the low to mid 30’s, putting the proposal in the high 20’s. But it would cover a lot more people so the total cost is presumably much higher.

Do not approve. A lot of what he supports is solid. But this? Must be something more to it.

Not electing Austin Petersen for that Senate seat in 2018 was the biggest mistake to happen in Missouri. I knew this would happen with Hawley. And of course Trump supported Hawley in the primary.

This is why that buffoon (if he makes it to NOV/or his replacement) will win. Each day this disaster lingers the more Trump becomes
