    a Covid relief bill where reportedly only 9% goes to relief

    Democrats have used labeling as a bait and switch tactic for as long as I can remember. So called COVID relief bill is not about COVID relief. This is about quid pro quo to states, public unions, et al, led by fellow travelers, and additional crack "free money" to increase the number of addicted dependents. What they're doing is disgusting and the MSM will run cover for them to make sure they get away with it.

    There’s a bunch of money going to things like childcare, rent assistance, re opening schools, unemployment insurance that’s not being counted as “relief”. Most dems are still liberals who bow to their corporate masters but the bill is not bad.

    You seem surprised. I’m proud of Biden to even make it close to double digits. When his dumb ass tried to pass a minimum wage law into a relief bill, I knew this thing was full of crap.

    Hey Kobe, explain how a minimum wage law applied to Covid relief.

    A huge chunk of the schools money is for 2022 and later. How is that being used to reopen the schools?

    Dig deeper.
    And this is why it’s obviously just a game to you guys. I demonstrate that the 9% number is bullshit, that way more is going to help people and there’s no acknowledgement at all. Just on to the next talking point.

    I can’t think of how a wage increase, to essential front line workers, applies to Covid relief.

    Totally stumped.

    @TheKobeStopper was told there wouldn't be detail on the test.

    Just the talking points.

    Opening up the economy is the best cure to all of these issues that is addressed by the spending. It’s a game and a crime to hold the citizens hostage with spending that has nothing to do with opening up.

    Still no answer as to why we can’t just do a bill that cuts checks and nothing else.
    Exactly, open up the economy and let people go back to work. The government paying people not to work is a fucking disaster.

    Yeah if you're completely irresponsible fiscally the bill is great. Why shouldn't taxpayers bailout public employee union pensions funds?
