You call that stimulus?
Fuck McConnell.
Biden Transition Highlights: Congress Reaches a Deal on Stimulus Package
"Leaders struck a long-sought stimulus deal, agreeing to provide $900 billion in aid. President Trump has discussed appointing a conspiracy theorist to investigate election fraud."
I hope nobody here is hurting too badly. Grocery prices in the US have gone up markedly of late, I hear.
It's a total wonder to me how he can look himself in the mirror when the purse strings are only tightened if the poverty-stricken need help.
The mistake was asking businesses and people to lockdown and not provide compensation for it like nearly every other civilized country did.
The US elected officials are a disgrace.
You can't mandate that people cannot work unless you provide assistance to keep a roof over their heads. Most will roll the dice with COVID if faced with living homeless on the streets. If the US had politicians who truly cared... they would have followed Canada's lead. Instead, their politicians left for one of their tax-payer paid vacations while taxpayers were waiting in food lines.
What is 600.00 going to do? Seriously. Americans should be hanging their heads in shame for voting these morons in office.
