Are they really a front/front company to funnel money to the rich? How does someone come up with "Oh lets give Gender Taliban Chick Studies in Pakistan" money funding when Americans are screaming for a roof over their head and FOOD. (Christmas presents are too late I guess) Where does that idea originate from when making a bill that both parties agree on? That is scary. There is something crooked in that agreement. Both parties are playing us suckers

Just a few miles to the north Canadian citizens have been getting thousands a month to get through this mess.

Pretty sure, this is also the annual budget and not just a "stimulus bill" so what you would normally see in the annual budget is part of this bill.

Your posts are consistently duplicitous or maybe you're just misinformed. Neither is a desirable characteristic.

Because we are letting our government screw us. They are used to doing so, so they will simply continue to do so, knowing nobody will stop them.

Evidentially not according to some of the replies already in this thread. Good point

Instead of giving them money for gender studies... why not send them a few million people with gender studies degrees?

We aren't. Someone lied to you and you believed it, because you lack proper critical thinking skills.

I have just two words to describe recent U.S. government -- no matter who is or was POTUS -- although so-called Progressive Democrats have just raised it to a (disgusting) art form:

Complete bull****

(Yeah, I know, not very eloquent, but it conveys my opinion.)
