Tax cuts aren't going to get people travelling again, reduce the load on medical services, or end the need for social distancing. Some of this we're just going to have to wait out.
Pelosi, Hoyer et al. will assemble an 'employment bailout bill' AUSPICES: pay for 'sick workers' who remain at home.
However, the real purpose of the bill will be to fund labor unions for their 2020 GOTV efforts. A funding mechanism happens almost every election year.
Could be. Both parties have a way of adding on to bills all kinds of stuff. That's usually what you find out when you are disgusted that a party refused to pass a bill that is seemingly a good bill.
I don't know why the other party then doesn't just take it to the public. Both parties do it so don't pretend it is a Democrat thing.
Well, the green energy stimulus was pretty much a bust from the start; Solyndra ($535mil loan, declared bankruptcy), Al Gore's Fisker ($529mil and built in Finland), both went bust.

I rest my case.
They haven't been testing people, the only ones that are being counted are those who end up dead or in the hospital and you think you made your case by comparing this to auto accidents?
I've read where older folks 60 and older, the risk goes up, when you hit 70-80, much higher risk. If you have heart disease, diabetes, COPD and other serious issues, this can accelerate your death with Corona Virus.
Damn, I guess I'd better become a hermit for awhile, or I'm doomed....I have heart disease, diabetes, chronic kidney disease among other things, and I'll turn 80 in July....Oh well we all have to go sometime.
