This coronavirus relief bill being pushed by Congress is a joke. They plan to give $600 to Americans after the government destroyed the economy through insane lockdown edicts. Nancy Pelosi is saying that the $600 is significant.

That statement from Pelosi is comical. $600 doesn’t buy anything these days. Unless you are living in extremely remote or rural areas, $600 doesn’t even pay a month’s worth of rent. In big cities, it is only a small fraction of a month’s rent.
There’s all sorts of other bullshit in this bill like $500 million for Israel.

And a $15 billion bailout for movie theaters and entertainment venues even though these businesses are totally unviable and will be unviable for quite awhile.

So who the hell knows what other bullshit is crammed in it.
Generally speaking when a bill is over 5,000 pages long, there’s all sorts of stupid and bad things included inside of it.
All this bill is doing is flushing money down a toilet and devaluing the purchasing power of the currency. It is not a solution.
