She can’t have much left.

frick the bill in general. Open up the country and let’s get back to work. People that are worth a shite want to work. They don’t want a government handout.

You realize corporate America. You know the people that signs all you mother frickers checks is also losing a frick ton of money. Their bail out is to keep you from losing your jobs.

Tell that to all the multimillionaires who live in mansions and drive Aston Martins - why don't THEY lose some of their wealth to make up for their losses? Why does it have to be the common citizens who struggle to pay their monthly bills - who once had those jobs that made those corporations their billions - who have to write the checks for them?

Name one time in this country that corporate America bailed out the American people. I'll wait. We always have to bail them out, then break our backs making their wealth. We are cattle....

Bookmarked for posterity.

Unreal.

Lucky you, you live in a country where nobody is forcing you to work. You can do whatever you think is best. Even better than that, if you decide to do without money, you won't even need to pay taxes.

Capitalism in the United States has absolutely NOTHING to do with Corporate America. It has always had to do with small businesses. Family owned businesses, self-sustaining businesses. All you Repubs crying all the time about "Big Government" Democrats and "Socialism" Liberals are so full of hypocritical shite, you'll never know better.

In America, true capitalism is you run a business, and if you do it well and provide a product/service that is beneficial to the people, you have success - even become rich off of it. If you don't, or if the next small business comes around and does it better, then you either adapt, pick up the pace, or you fail and go away. That's capitalism in the United States.

Just because your small family-owned business becomes a multi-million dollar business, or even a multi-BILLION dollar business, is NOT supposed to change that fact. You provide the product/service, and you succeed. Or you don't, and become the way of Ma Bell. It's still the same idea.

The idea of a corporate business becoming so huge that it's "too big to fail" - meaning it's now the responsibility of the American people and government to keep it propped up regardless of its own ability to self-sustain - has absolutely NOTHING to do with Capitalism. It's now essentially a State-supported industry. It's never supposed to be business like that in the United States.

Meanwhile, the owners of those corporations live like kings on house money, pretty much. We got too much of that corporate corruption in this country, and the pitiful thing is, too many of the common citizens who derive little to NO benefit from those corporations, while mostly having to fund/subsidize them with their own taxes, jump up and down like I'm talking about their own family. Those corporate CEOs don't give a flying shite about you or your family.

Alter login issue. He was so busy freaking out over hindsight responses to the virus that he forgot which account he was using.

Another thing to consider, if the democrats had seen anything about the virus that truly scared them they wouldn't be doing this crap. This is business as usual politics, not crisis legislation so that tells me they know this virus is not the danger it is being claimed to be.

The virus is real but the overreaction is a damn hoax, we need to drop all restrictions, go back to work and scrap the stimilus package altogether. The bullshite has gotten deep and it's time to just stop.
