This next stimulus bill...

The amount of $ they are talking about heaping on the public is insane.... And the eligible income levels equally so...

Compared to bailing of private companies.. who ever thought 1200 bucks would do anything

Not all Americans need 2000 k a month I know I dont I get an income via my retirement and my wife is still working and anyone who collects unemployment they are getting taken care of

But there are a lot of Americans who need the assistance let's start there

Banks Rake In $10B in Fees in Phase 1 of PPP.

That's a good amount when you consider that all banks in the country in the first quarter of 2019 brought in roughly $65 billion in non-interest income, which includes almost all fee income at banks. And the $10 billion was made in a two-week time period.

So the PPP lent out 1 trillion dollars? I thought it was 700B and the bank fee was 1 percent.
In any case more stimulus is bullcrap, get people back to work because people need to work not rely on government. Vote all incumbents out, the trouble with that is there is in most cases just another sleeze bag lawyer to take their place but we have to send a message.
