Voting against a socialist/communist measure makes you a communist now? If you made $100k a year and a half ago and have been out of a job for a year, you don't get the paltry $600. Were they actually going to write $2000 checks to EVERYONE?
This is the bread and circus that your conquered Roman pals didn't warn you about. And you're the one footing your own bill.
Not "EVERYONE" ...workers, who paid taxes; workers who they took $2000 from, refused to reduce taxes for, would not allow to go to work anymore, and whose money they tried to give away to foreigners and illegals.
There is a BIG difference between Socialism and Justice!
There is a BIG difference between Wealth Redistribution and Returning money you took!
There is a BIG difference between giving 'free' bikes to everyone and returning the bike you stole!
I have NEVER received a handout from the government! This 'stimulus' and the last one are MY money! # ...they just gave it back.
You're getting a lot of downvotes but I'll go out on a limb and say we're in agreement here.
My idea of a stimulus package would be to utilize federal agents to ensure that no states or municipalities are instituting any sort of lockdowns or reduction in service of any legitimate businesses during the lockdown. If a private business decides to do it, fine, but the federal government should be making sure that states and cities aren't actively trying to shoot themselves in the dick for whatever nefarious reason.
I don't think we should be sending out much or any foreign aid until this shit blows over but if we are going to do anything domestically it should be directed towards people, not special interests

I'm OK with his voting against the $2k, as long as he voted against the porkulus. He didn't. Fuck him.
Hello Senator Cornyn! You're upset with giving the tax payer $2000 back, but perfectly fine with sending billions of $ to foreign nations?
