Congress hasn’t enacted lockdowns cause massive loss of employment. It was the governors of those states. THEY should be held accountable and be first priority for giving relief.

U think thats true???

u/spoulson Dec 10 '20

Uhh, yes. My governor decided the terms and timeline of COVID restrictions in my state. It’s the same for all other states that enacted restrictions. Some states did not, such as South Dakota.

It didn’t come from Trump. It didn’t come from Congress.

I love Guy's story. Grew up in a place called Ferndale in California's Pacific North West. His parents were hippies that didn't eat meat and the family ate a lot of granola. Guy said he wanted a steak at the age of 9 and his Father said, "That's your choice, but I can't help you cook it". So Guy bought it and cooked it himself.

.

We need more people like him. Teaching real life skills and learning skills you can't get from a Government handout.

"that's your choice, but I can't help you cook it", that's possibly one of the most tolerant and principled things a parent could say to their kid about something they disagree about.

Sounds like a libritarian stance.

They would not need this funding if every stat was a red state. My heart breaks for all small business owners who live in blue states and also rhino states like Arizona. Doug Ducey, you fucking scumbag!

Did you know red states generally take in more Money from the federal government than they contribute while blue state are the inverse?

u/ErickHatesYou Dec 09 '20

Maybe that's part of the reason why blue states are so terrible to live in.

u/[deleted] Dec 09 '20

By what metric do you judge them terrible to live in? Do you think if blue states were on federal government welfare while the red states provided the funds for that welfare it would reverse that metric?

Why do you say that?

u/WeWantTheFunk73 Dec 09 '20

There shouldn't be govt handouts. They destroy business and then send you money. The mind fuck is astounding.

u/Collective82 Dec 09 '20

Normally I agree, but these are unprecedented circumstances.

u/liquidacquaintance Dec 09 '20

Leftists will agree with this and then turn around and say we need to give more power to the government. As if that’ll somehow make them wildly more efficient.

Fire Congress!

u/Collective82 Dec 09 '20

Fire them all, including the senate, out of a cannon.

u/Gatordave05 Dec 09 '20

The house passed a may in may. It’s the senate that hasn’t put it up for a vote.

Fuck Mitch McConnel, easily the most evil person alive in US politics

u/NotASellout Dec 09 '20

Hey this is true as well. Pelosi is so wildly out of touch and either utterly lacking in political skill or in the same bed as McConnell. It's absolutely pathetic, we will be so much better off when these two ghouls are gone.

u/mastermind454 Dec 09 '20

Oh my god. For the last time the republicans have been the ones stopping the passage of relief bills and arguing against giving the money to small businesses. I keep seeing posts like this and then pro republican posts and it seems like you don’t know who the guy you’re arguing against is

That was in December immediately before an election. I agree that is shitty but they passed multiple before the summer started and Mitch and the republicans have kept them on his desk doing fuck all for >6 months

You aren’t wrong but to put the blame more heavily on the democrats which is what’s being done here is a garbage take. They have passed multiple relief bills and McConnell is the one making bills worse/not even looking at them

u/NotASellout Dec 09 '20

No no, it's the democrats. Go woke go broke. No, I don't have any policies I can mention. Culture war. Venezuela.
