Trying to figure the next step here. We're dealing with at least two emergencies. The virus, and now our economy.
If things level off (market wise) today or tomorrow, I think we're good economically. But if things continue to plummet (down 2k points currently), does anyone think the folks that fund politics are gonna seek a change?
I mean if they're losing Billions... could you see a meeting with Pence and the Cabinet? Even this week?
Try to sure up national confidence and stop the economic bleeding.
So much for the federal government getting it's **** together.
SMHCould Pence take over?
Romney is backing a form of this too.As far as trying to stabilize the economy, this is the right move. This would encourage more people to stay at home, instead of trying to gut it out.
Tulsi Gabbard and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez back universal basic income in response to coronavirus
UK could face huge problems also due to lack of ventilators...
Stay safe my friend
This can’t be. I’ve been led to believe that only the US is ill-equipped to handle this.UK could face huge problems also due to lack of ventilators...

I've got no dog in the Sanders vs Biden fight and yes, Biden has proposed freezes or cuts or slowdowns mostly in the 80s and 90s but his track record is not that of advocating cuts for 40 years.It is not patently false, but it was a distortion of the truth. Biden did try several times to cut SS, Medicare, etc in the '90s. However his statement in 2018 was taken out of context (Biden was mocking Paul Ryan), so that was a bad move by the Sanders campaign.

Expect trump and the GOP to fight tooth and nail against this, a week after giving big banks $1.5 trillion in temporary liquidity.
I heard anyone old enough to remember the Jete winning the Super Bowl will get free delivery
Good idea in principle, but I’d rather have it as vouchers/food stamps for all and reimbursements or vouchers for basic necessities like rent or mortgage. The idea of writing a 1,000 check to cash is a terrible idea, and children shouldn’t be punished for parents/guardians being irresponsible. They hesitated to shut down the schools in California because millions of kids depend on schools to eat. When I asked why they can’t just subsidized it though money, I was told because the money/food would,never get to the kids.
$1.5tril of overnight loans is something very different than $1000 per month per adult. The latter is actual spending. The former isn't.Expect trump and the GOP to fight tooth and nail against this, a week after giving big banks $1.5 trillion in temporary liquidity.

There is no cabinet, they are all acting
That's doublespeak, a COLA freeze is effectively a cut. Unless you believe there will be zero inflation in which case a freeze would be pointless as there would be no offset, which brings us back to the aforementioned doublespeak.
