At this point if you've got lower class workers why not just lay them off and let the government pay them for the next four months. Some of them will make more that way.

This bill is ridiculous.
There is a very good chance we are not done yet. Both House and Senate members have hinted that additional bills will be necessary to prop other businesses and further employee subsidies.

The Stimulus Bill is a short term solution to what may be a long term problem. Conservatives are going to whine about it, but sending everyone back to work will prolong the pain, not end it.
 

It will be fine

This new govt handout bill is 800 plus pages long. I would doubt anyone read the whole thing. Well, maybe Trump. He finished number one in his class at the Evelyn Wood academy.
No one reads any bill. The staffers divy up the whole thing between a group of senators or congressmen’s staff and they give each other bullet points or reasons for objection.

Coronavirus bill will create 'devastating' incentive to lay off employees, critics say

Under the legislation, unemployed workers would both collect bigger unemployment checks — which could, in some cases, even exceed their typical wages — and receive those payments over a longer period of time.
Why are you shaming it? It passed the GOP dominated Senate by vote of 96-0 and is much larger than the Obama stimulus package and many repugs said it was too large. Oh how the tide has turned on the repugs . Now there is simply no such thing as the government spending too much on this a crisis because their guy is in the big house and he's up for reelection.

But your orange headed hero said he will sign it the moment it hits his desk. And since he is in your mind the greatest president since Washington and being one of Orange Head's loyal subjects any opposition on your part is disloyal and contrary to you duty and blind devotion.

Hopefully the free press will ask him questions about all 880 pages.

Still coherent enough to know hypocrisy when I see it. You're a prime example of it. In your mind's eye the GOP can do no wrong . The Republican members of the Senate by a unanimous vote approved the package. Doesn't that make them socialists as well? Or are the Democrats who voted in favor of the bailout the only members who are socialists?

Pathetic straw man argument loser.
Try again.
