why do you think some of us were shouting to get a job? it was funny shitposting but it's also true, that bill passed socialism that even europe would get shocked at and everyone just accepted it at face value
guess what? they're passing more welfare in a couple weeks at the tune of another face value of $1 trillion (they aren't calculating the expense of extra unemployment yet). they're also floating the idea of cutting interest rates to negative, so you lose money you have in the bank. because fuck anyone that was frugal or responsible
