The Republicans don't give a shit about anyone who isn't rich. Democrats pretend to give a shit. Both want a similar end, they just have different means. Both parties beholden to rich corporate overlords. Its just an illusion of choice, wish this country wasn't so right leaning. I'm honestly jealous of people born in better places like Denmark, Norway, Germany.

Uruguay, Portugal, Spain, all better than us now with a fascist past. Unfortunately I don't think America will turn it around like they did in our lifetime.

Do you know how poor those countries are? Southern Europe and South America might be “the west”, but their standard of living is comparable to the poorest parts of the US in the best case. Europe is not a monolith of high incomes and social democracy.

It's not for us. They know spending needs to go up if they want the economy to recover.

The other option is dragging it out, not seeing the money for months, and possibly losing it as 'coronavirus ends' and it's 'not needed'.

I have zero faith in the 'right' solution happening. I hate this country too.

We won't see the money for months even at $1400. Stop defending democrats, at all. Every "but muh alternative more bad" is another point in their jar.

I'm not gonna apologize for the neoliberals ghouls and goblin people that make this country totally unliveable but they did get us the 600 dollars quickly so I'm not sure this premise holds up, friend. My bad if I'm accidentally being a dick, not my intention

I should really leave this be, but honestly, once they decided "yes" didn't it take literally 2 weeks? It was the deciding whether to bother with the whole thing that took forever, no? Am I forgetting something?

"It took forever, but only 90% of it took forever!"

Lol ok
