Cash payments to individuals over Nancy’s objection.

On the plus side, the banks seem…OK? Maybe post-crisis regulation worked.

Maybe…but I don’t think you realize how much people are hurting and are going to be hurting.

Let’s not screw this up because it’s not perfect or not enough.

Just get the $1000 to everyone and claw it back from people like me in the next tax year. Or just give me a write off to legitimate groups - food banks, stuff like that. This isn’t that hard.

I suspect what should kick her out of VP discussion will guarantee Joe picks her though. My relentless optimism is hard at work today!

Don’t agree with “ban buybacks,” though. Just let stupid companies that repurchase overpriced shares go bankrupt.

What, they don’t have a 6 month emergency fund? Someone should teach them financial literacy, IMO

RNC is officially more progressive than the DNC. Not really that surprising. :man_shrugging:

She’s got a plan for everything but what is right in front of her face :joy:

Banks are doing okay for now because they are not writing down loans yet, they will not be okay when we enter the inevitable depression and defaults start happening right and left.

At least the housing market is not totally overpriced and ready to pop… oh wait.
