I know I may sound naive asking this, but wouldn't it just be easier to change the Bill? If the bill doesn't help New York, what good is it? It should provide Coronavirus relief for everyone in the nation who needs it.

But I'm not a political type, so if I'm thinking about this wrong I'm open to being corrected.



New York votes for Democrats. Making them suffer and look bad is part of Trump's campaign.


This didn't just happen... someone wanted to screw one of those liberal states in this democrat hoax...


If that be the case, I mean, yeah, just, no words.

I'm disappointed I guess.

I've always had limited faith and political and economic leaders, but this crisis has really just cratered the little faith I did have.

Let's screw the liberal states?

Let's make a few bucks on the stock market?

Just, wow. Can't even be angry really, I don't deserve any better. In a democracy, you get exactly the leaders you are deserving of. I guess I know how much we rate. Lesson learned.


Also keep in mind the proposed $1000 check has a salary minimum in order to qualify, not just salary maximum.

I suppose the poor cannot vote you out if they are dead.

Because the kind of people who are in that bracket will spend it...


Wow. Didn't know that either.

Just, yeah.

To not only do all the stuff that our politicians, of every political stripe, are doing, but then to screw over the poor at a time like this as well?

I think I'm done here for the day. I'm pretty sure I don't want to know anything more about what the politicians are doing.


Yeah, $75,000 maximum, $18,000 minimum...

If you make $75,000 in New York, you're probably homeless... but in the red states that's fuck you money.
