MakeIt Lol it doesn’t matter because the left won’t allow it to vote in the senate anyway. Go Democrats! Politicizing relief packages to hurt constituents more so you may pick up more votes in November!

MakeIt I can't believe the Republicans didn't include the stimulus checks in their bill...so sad - all they care about is Wall Street and apparently Ted Cruz's 'school choice' (that supports private schools that allow discrimination...)

MakeIt So, no second stimulus. But the grim reaper is pushing for “business liability protections” that would shield corporations from “coronavirus exposure” lawsuits; would apply to employees *and* the public—a deadly prospect. Would also shield biz from ADA safety laws. MitchKnew

MakeIt Oh boy this isnt going to end well. 😳

MakeIt Greedy opportunist politicians fill these relief bills with reckless, self serving spending. Appalling example of humanity.

MakeIt These guys really blew trillions of $ on barely helping anybody. Hysterical. Impressive, really.

MakeIt No suprise,they along wth Trump could care less about anyone but themselves,heck Trump proved it with his 18 taped interviews with Bob Woodard.

MakeIt They aren’t getting liability protections. Give it up

MakeIt Buy Dollar Tree.

MakeIt It also does not include Pelosi's hair bill

CNBC

MakeIt Damn I was looking forward to extra money for my Fundrise account

CNBC Unacceptable SenateGOP. American people demands more.

CNBC They do anything for clout

MakeIt Good!

CNBC The money tree has been shaken bare. Pelosi will NEVER be satisfied while the country suffers at her expense.

MakeIt Wall Street, Congress, Corporations, 1% rn:

MakeIt

MakeIt If true, bad decision tactically and strategically. Also, just plan bad for struggling Americans and for Trump’s re-election hopes.

MakeIt Republicans should know that when economies crash, people blame whoever is in charge. That is Republicans right now.

MakeIt Every state should open their economy... problem solved. Stay inside if you dont feel safe.

TheFireTracker2 MakeIt They don't want anyone to have any money to panic with.

MakeIt

MakeIt Then it's not going to fly!

CNBC Skinny? How about the socialist party of America opens small businesses in a logical way. Then we won’t need the fed printing money. Remember everyone, the government doesn’t make money!! They are printing it. It will ruin us.

CNBC Cheapskates

MakeIt Because they know that exposes the lie that UBI is not possible

CNBC Senate Republicans playing games again with American people! When politicians don't respect you, they lie and play games with your life!

CNBC It was $600 a week, so it's not a continuation.

CNBC It’s greedy a-holes like these that cause the people to rise against the government then label those same people as “criminals.” Who the hell are they to say people lose incentive to work with higher unemployment benefits? They speak like damn slave masters.

CNBC non starter give up some of that tax cut ya greedy bastards

CNBC Thanks for nothing then

CNBC Who received the 500B Mnuchin and Trump control?

CNBC Heros Act

CNBC Sure, that will be real popular with voters

CNBC I thought that was already done by executive order..

CNBC So this is basically the heals act without stimulus checks and an fbi building?

CNBC They are just making a distraction Same shit different day remember the executive orders were already doing that just throwing Bitch McConnell to the dogs as he says

CNBC Mitch, YOU DECIDED TO KEEP AN INCOMPETENT PERSON IN THE WHITE HOUSE! His continuing FAILURE TO MANAGE THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENTS RESPONSE to the Pandemic HAS NOW resulted in 194,037 DEATHS 1K/D as 30 Million unemployed lose insurance, Bankruptcies, Foreclosures & Evictions CONTINUE!

CNBC

CNBC $300 dlls oh wow!! what a great fucking accomplishment... meanwhile lets keep putting money on the PPP fund so big corporations keep getting free money pretending to be small businesses

CNBC Bunch of donkeys

CNBC

CNBC

CNBC This is also the election measure, the same as in Japan.

hermoneyness CNBC Fuck the GOP

CNBC They might as well just print some more money and make us all happy. BTW Why do we pay taxes if you can just print money?

CNBC Their mistake

CNBC It's cool, we got $1200 to live on 4 months ago. A dollar a day is totally fine, we're good.
