I would absolutely prefer that they keep the original income limits, but even the new one covers 71% of households. They are also offering checks for children. I am not sure where "the original 2000 dollar check" guy stood on that. <br />Democrats are offering more than "Trump Bad". And hey, if firing labor department officials and others is part of "Trump Bad", then I am all for it.

Never mind looking good, make the Other look bad. <br /><br />They seem more intent on defaming Republicans. Change the subject to "Trump bad and all Republicans just like him." Relief checks? Talk about McConnell, as if he had the votes to stop it and had done so.Mark Thomasonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-974773076690597683.post-6180605401422074882021-02-06T19:02:24.634-05:002021-02-06T19:02:24.634-05:00Karen, thank you for teaching me a new word: seque...Karen, thank you for teaching me a new word: sequelae, as in "the economic sequelae of the pandemic."<br /><br />And this is priceless:<br /><br />"Also - how many stimulus checks could Chuck Schumer shuck if a Chuck Schumer could cut checks?” <br /><br />Best wishes, please take care to stay safe, <br />and keep up your keen insights, astute analyses, and witty commentaries!<br />Erik Rothnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-974773076690597683.post-58861375139929195732021-02-05T09:22:32.127-05:002021-02-05T09:22:32.127-05:00The Democrats have the votes to ram through their ...<br />The Democrats have the votes to ram through their rescue package. <b>Yeah!</b><br /><br />And the Dems rammed that bill through last night. <b>Hurrah!</b><br /><br />However, a Times headline this morning says the federal minimum wage Biden promised to raise to $15 (slowly, slowly over a period of the next 4 years) got removed from the $1.9 trillion bill. <b>What!!!?</b><br /><br />And days earlier it was said that the promised $2,000 cheques, which Biden had promised would go out on Day 1 of his Administration, will now be shaved down considerably so as not to cause inflation. <b>[reaction deleted]</b>Jay–Ottawahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10360356126450612113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-974773076690597683.post-16946846465045670112021-02-05T02:45:25.857-05:002021-02-05T02:45:25.857-05:00I can't say I am surprised.

How long before boobus Americus catches on to all this two party bullshit. I think the masses are tiring of this non leadership which was apparent on Jan. Sixth. The only real and present power of the people is their numbers, just a thought.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
