From WSJopinion: Right now many Americans are living in an illusion. Once direct payments end and the new economic reality sets in, expect a political earthquake, writes HolmesJosh.

Wonder Land: Nancy Pelosi offers not a bailout but a bail-in, a nationalization of blue-state spending.

Images: Getty Images Composite: Mark KellyThe political press is preoccupied with the electoral implications of the virus crisis, and pundits insist the 2020 election will be about the Trump daily soap opera. But an emerging cultural and economic time bomb is about to explode. There has never been a wider gap between average Americans’ perception of their own economic situation and the reality of it. America could soon have its most combustible political environment in recent history.

opinion HolmesJosh ....the waiting might be over.

opinion HolmesJosh The huge gap between the haves and the have nots is at the root of this unrest: Corrupt Capitalism has gone too far under Trump and GOP.

opinion HolmesJosh How did you guys let this article leak through. Is the whole editorial staff hung over or something.

opinion HolmesJosh Subsidies will be replaced by other programs to facilitate employment. That's what we're doing in Europe: govt pays a part of the salary for those who lost their jobs or had their contracts suspended and find new employment or go back to work.

opinion HolmesJosh WELL WSJ STOP THE RIOTING, BURNING, ANTIFA INTRUSION AND THEN OUR ECONOMY WILL PICK UP AND JOBS COME BACK ECT.

opinion HolmesJosh The rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer. The trend continues.

opinion HolmesJosh Covid hoax is over. Lockdown Dems in panic

opinion HolmesJosh Agreed. The current rioting is just the start. My fear is, the current power in the White House lacks the political nous to handle the coming 'Covid political earthquake;' and judging by his past actions, he will only succeed by adding fuel on the fiery ordeal.

opinion HolmesJosh Can't read article without paying you.

opinion HolmesJosh Peaceful, Conscious Change to restore our America. It does require the immediate house arrest and trial of those in public office and their minions who have betrayed their oath of office to uphold the US Constitution and the Rights of We the People.

opinion HolmesJosh Thai opinion piece almost gives me faith ... normally it’s some right-wing wacko telling us something of questionable worth. This piece on the other hand is provocative without making me want to 🤮

opinion HolmesJosh It’s coming. Robots and AI will be the super volcano. poverty

opinion HolmesJosh Massive economic disparity will ensue,,.

opinion HolmesJosh Yup, soon people won't have money. Then they will ask blue governors why they are starving their citizens

opinion HolmesJosh

opinion HolmesJosh As a conservative media outlet your opinion rings hollow. Yes the approve/disapprove percentages remain the same. Why? You are sampling the same tribalist base without expansion. The 48 % DEMS serve your purpose. Try expanding into a Republican urban sample. Different results?

opinion HolmesJosh

opinion HolmesJosh Yea right. Nothing is gonna change afterwards

opinion HolmesJosh I only had one payment. Are there more?

opinion HolmesJosh America prints money of the world. Americans shouldn’t act anxious. Come to Pakistan, and you’ll see what real hunger looks like... what it means to know you won’t have food a few weeks down the lane, and your govt just can’t do anything to amend that.

opinion HolmesJosh This is no REAL

opinion HolmesJosh Notably those communities thugs have now burned and looted...
