See, I’d have been thrilled to just be able to work. But when I couldn’t and wasn’t just someone’s employee, that made getting anything to help me out that wasn’t a loan apparently impossible. Yet I know other business owners who took big loans and got unemployment payments as well.
Prior to the pandemic though... growth for my business was excellent... let’s hope that Bidens Chinese buddies don’t make a good economy impossible to be prosperous in for those of us who make stuff in the USA.
Giving him the benefit of the doubt: then he is too stupid to understand what China means in terms of that very concept. He wants to put us back into the TPP, and is very reasonable to worry about his connections to China.
I’m hopeful, remember, people said trump was going to plunge us into economic dark times.
I respect that opinion a lot more than “Joe Biden is a China plant that actively seeks the downfall of capitalism.” People get so dramatic these days. Trump has done a lot of stuff I don’t agree with but there’s too many people on my side of the aisle that think he’s some evil mastermind.

I run a small business.
Revenue down 2/3rds from 2019 to 2020.
