If America can borrow $20 TRILLION for hunger programs and schools and paid sick leave and other France like programs then why not?

It would only cost around 2%…

Good idea, progressives?

Nope.

Since we are asking stupid questions.... Conservatives, should we govern like Somalia in order to rid ourselves of govt burden?

Please don't call them "progressives." They are far from that.

They are l-i-b-e-r-a-l-s.

Yes, we can put everyone to work immediately. We can hire 4 postal workers for every mail truck. One to grab the mail. One to pass the mail, one to put the mail in the mailbox and one to drive. We can buy bigger mail trucks to fit in the additional crew members. Stamps might cost $3, but what could go wrong?

Is there a symbolic reason for choosing $20 trillion?
