That's the short term speculation on the announcement. Not the actual 500 billion itself. pls learn to economy.
ok i'm waiting for the actual recovery then
only the latest plan of handing out money to americans will have any positive effect, bailing out the mega-corps has had no effect
Once we get positive news about this stupid WuFlu bullshit, it will be fine. But the majority of the fall, was due to the Russian/SA fight on oil, combined w/the media frenzy of the WuFlu. Now, since we're overreacting (IMO) and shutting down cities, the stonks are falling because of lost revenue and people being layed off. Bail-outs I would support would only be for airline operations and within that absolutely no money to CEOs, VPs, etc. (Basically just operational expenses, and regular employees paychecks). Just to keep transportation alive so we can move goods and services around for people as they are quarantined. The checks will help people in the immediate time because a lot of these people now on unemployment or soon to be, will have to wait at least a week or two before checks come from their states. Meaning they are going to be hurting for immediate cash.
But again, until there is a vaccine, or we learn more that its not as bad as everyone thinks it is, I don't see logic behind keeping everything shut down. If there is no vaccine, and we lift city quarantines in a month, the virus can still then flare up again and cause this exact same scenario. (my opinion).
@dakkath I agree
In the mean time, anyone buying stocks?
Businesses need a payroll tax holiday. That would greatly help profits and encourage business owners to retain staff.
hmmmm
stfu the guy who killed the tsar spilled the bean while bieng drunk. going even into detail how anastasia diamon incrusted dress made her execution harder and why he had the order tho execute them because they were a treat to Lenin new government ..

@Waynedale44 I know several people rn who plan on investing, its the perfect time to start investing in the market with the current down time.
Lots of folks are making a fortune on playing options atm but even more are loosing their asses. If you invest right now, I would buy blue chip stocks or bonds.
Trumps been handling this situation incredibly
I'm seeing even the biggest fag liberals on reddit congratulate him for how he's handled this situation
who gives a fuck let them die this quarantine shit is retarded
On one hand it's retarded as fuck. On the other, I get to work from home for at least a couple weeks where it's peaceful as fuck, with a firearm ready and plenty of rations and food I stockpiled well before this shit happened. And people rolled their eyes at preppers. Fuckers are now crying about empty shelves in the stores.
the only thing bugging me is, i cant go snowboarding, bowling, or to a pub.
so i was curious about this, are we actually getting a stimulus check, as in every american, or is it only for the population that lost their job due to corona?
I'm not sure, when I watched his address yesterday they kept saying they havnt disclosed the specifics yet. I know he made one earlier today but I didnt get to watch it
IIRC there IS something coming down the pipeline, but not an announcement on the amount was made,
Either way, I work in retail and we've been having a completely fucking stupid amount of business lately, as in we've gotten stuff that would usually last us a 2 days gone in like 1
hell, not even that - give it 10 hours
Ya my Costco had a line today that wrapped around the entire warehouse
Yea I'm curious who gets it
I work construction and my city is shutting down soon from what I've heard
if some liberal arts major gets $1000 I better get $1001
850 billion stimulus package = 850 billion we don't have = money that will be added to the national debt = even MORE taxes and regulations. They're selling our future instead of addressing the panicking morons.
It's the apocalypse if you ask anyone Lmao
We just need Bernard to part the red sea and save us
Lolno
Bernard would throw us into the red sea of communism and jump in after us
How is a widely accepted centrist policy like medicare for all communism
All the Bernard supporters are gonna blow their money on weed and ask for more
@DiDozen how do you propose getting the money for it without raising taxes even more
Look at Canada
Wait lists for everything
