White House officials are working with congressional Republicans on an emergency stimulus package that could send two $1,000 checks to many Americans and also devote $300 billion towards helping small businesses avoid mass layoffs, according to two senior administration officials and a Treasury Department fact sheet.

I think the implicit message is that they want you to prep for the upcoming crash, Feldman.

Joke’s on them. I work for a Medicaid plan so my salary ain’t going nowhere, even if I have to work from home. Bwahahahaha:snowman:

Imagine all the TP I’ll be able to hoard with $2,000.

I’m not really that irresponsible, but humor is my mental defense mechanism so...fuckin toilet paper, eh? HA! :shrug2:  :justdontknow:

You could double your money if you transfer it into TP. And you don't even have to pay capitals gain because it's not capital.

Thankfully, Amazon and eBay say they're not allowing price gauging on toilet paper, hand sanitizers, masks, etc.:

He Has 17,700 Bottles of Hand Sanitizer and Nowhere to Sell Them
Quote:

Noah Colvin took a 1,300-mile road trip across Tennessee and into Kentucky, filling a U-Haul truck with thousands of bottles of hand sanitizer and thousands of packs of antibacterial wipes, mostly from “little hole-in-the-wall dollar stores in the backwoods,” his brother said. “The major metro areas were cleaned out.”

The next day, Amazon pulled his items and thousands of other listings for sanitizer, wipes and face masks. The company suspended some of the sellers behind the listings and warned many others that if they kept running up prices, they’d lose their accounts. EBay soon followed with even stricter measures, prohibiting any U.S. sales of masks or sanitizer.

I am in a minority on the shroomery, as I frequently defend the opposing side when they have a point about something or when my side make believes something about them.  I also attack my side if I think they're wrong.  People here get very confused by that and think it means I prefer the other side.

Haha that guy must be piiissed :lol:

An armed group of robbers stole 100,000 surgical masks today in Ukraine. They got caught in about 15min.
But it turned out, they were originally supposed to buy them “on the black market” but decided to rob the seller at gunpoint.

Face Mask Cartel?
I’m sorry, I know I should be taking this more seriously, but that’s just objectively hilarious.

Found it:

Quote:

A group of armed robbers have been apprehended in Kiev following an attempt to steal 100,000 medical masks.

The five men had arranged to buy the protective kit from a black marketeer on Friday. Instead, on meeting the intermediary, the group posed as police and ordered him to hand the goods over for free.

Nope!
If you’re a citizen and earn less than $x, you get 2 big uns.
The “x” is said to be set above 200,000/year of household income, but they’re still negotiating.

So, basically....McConnell and Trump are chocking on Pelosi's BBC. :lol:

The sheer incompetence is astounding. If Trump shut up and followed the instructions Obama left, he could have gone down in history as one of the best modern US presidents based on the Coronavirus response alone. This literally would have washed his record clean.

Instead, he fucked it up so bad that now he's sucking UBI out of Pelosi's cock, and smiling for the privilege.

By removing availability in many remote areas, this guy will be responsible for more deaths than the average serial killer.

That's the kind of capitalism that needs to die.

Are you sure that you still get it if you are unemployed? I really want this to be true but I will believe it when I see it.

Well I’ll believe it when I see it too, but any politician who takes a stand against it will be out of a job so it’s a pretty safe bet it’ll happen.

But yeah, it’s everyone under a certain income bracket. At least 80% of the population and definitely if unemployed.

There’s also a bill focused on helping working people, that just passed the senate, which will reimburse those who can’t work. The $2,000 is a separate effort.

WTF?

That is capitalism. This is the kind of coup de grace I can only pull off in economic sandbox videogames, and he did it in real life. He cornered the market, knocked out his competition, and completely controlled the supply of a high demand product. A product without which, people would die. This means he had unlimited room to dictate his price, and people would have to pay it to live. He could have cleaned out entire cities.

People say that's some special "evil" kind of capitalism, but no, they are wrong. This is what capitalism looks like. This is absolute peak capitalism, a textbook example.

I kinda envy the guy. Hell, this is some billion dollar insurance company shit, but he doesn't have to pay a bunch of employees.

I'd bet half of my upcoming 2000$ that they DO NOT send out individual checks to single Americans but rather they're going to go with huge bailouts for the top employing companies in the country and use trickle down economics instead.

Nope.  Pelosi was happy to leave it at a means-tested $500 until Romney said $1000 and then Bernie said $2000.
Trump actually ran to the House Dems' left and might have saved himself politically(somehow).

here is an interesting exchange more or less right after Bernie got done calling for $2000 for every American until the crisis is over:

Not really, he's just trying to look like he's going left instead of being dragged along.

The best example of this is unemployment protections (specifically, the lack thereof). Diaper Don is seeing an opportunity to maybe get off cheap at $2k per head, which would be barely enough to keep people going for two months. Considering predictions are that coronavirus will be around for 18 months, he's doing the absolute bare minimum that he can to appease his voter base.

I'm also willing to bet my entire $2k government check that in April 2021, we will all be informed that that wasn't actually a payment, but a loan, and that we owe it back to the government. Just like the time Bush sent out $600 dollar checks.

Diaper Don is basically gonna do the eBay chargeback scam, except he's buying votes.
