As of today I still have not received my family stimulus, PPP, EIDL, Tax refund (filed early march) business unemployment, or any response for an SBA loan. Nada zero zilch. What enrages me is the banks took care of their top customers, pampered them, while the small businesses fight for the scraps.

Should be the other way around.

My employer didn't get one either and I was ready to go back. This whole thing isn't perfect, which is why we need to open up

I feel you, I even had a side job lined up, was now cancelled. When we open back up, small business are going to need capital to pay their creditors, otherwise they might not open back up. It's just not that easy without the funds.

Yeah. The sooner we open the less loss everyone will have-> the faster we'll recover -> the better it will be

This is the main example as to why small businesses should have told the government to fuck right off and not closed.

sure... but in reality, who's going to patronize the small businesses? It's Costco, WholeFoods, Amazon, Apple, Google, Bill Gates, and Netflix that are raking in the customers now

Should never have closed to begin with. I'm in the same boat as you. We shut down for 2 weeks then made the decision to open back up regardless of what our governor said. Imo this was all coordinated and used to attack 'Deplorables'. The first shot in an economic civil war, if you will. For small businesses out so places like Walmart, Costco, etc would be the only place you could buy certain goods. Just out of curiosity, who do those corporations give all their political capital to?

That program was not administered well. I don't know whose fault it is (Mnuchin?) but it had better get fixed today!

Hey - I'm in the same boat except I got my refund last week. Unfortunately, a refund means we made less money last year than expected! Good luck and hang in there!

Hey, they need more flash dance training. Choreographers and ostrich feathers aren't cheap.

So let's shut everything down and we will pick the winners and losers like the Soviet Communist Party.

Several aren't nurses.

Scrubs are cheap. Think about where ANTIFA comes from.

Real nurses wouldn't be all wearing the exact same brand new scrubs with sunglasses while "protesting".

I'm well aware. Blood is effing difficult to get out if you miss it.
