The stimulus package will cost each American $18,000. $16,200 goes to corporations and $1200 goes to you. Wait until this enters the conversation.

That could be countered by how much bigger a corporation is than an individual though. You’d have to use percentages rather than raw dollar figures.

Completely against this, just like any other bailout. Not just because I don’t believe in them, but also we can’t afford it. Printing money is not the answer.

On what do you base your conclusions?

Sure it is. With digital technology it's pretty easy too.

For those of you upset over Trump wanting to re-open things by Easter, how is this any different than Governor Whitmer's April 13th expiration of all restrictions currently placed on Michiganders? There is literally only a one day difference.
Good catch. Nice to see there's someone else on this board who isn't a total fruitcake.

I think it might be that people trust that Whitmer will extend Michigan's order if justified for public health. She'll consider the science, Trump won't.
Plus, Trump is talking about full churches on Easter (religion is very important to him, right?), and Whitmer and others would still promote social distancing after quarantine.

Whitmer apparently believes elective abortions are still a necessary service, which is draining N95 masks from more urgent needs.

You don't think she is two-faced?

Consider this...
Crazy EO's that shut down entire state under the banner of "protecting life" in counties that have no cases, because people are taking reasonable precautions, but if it's a ER doctor needs a mask, oh screw'em because abortions got to keep going!

I thought non-life saving surgeries needed to be cancelled under her EO, but not abortions? This is evil and two faced.

Further research says she intended this to be a "sliding" date with re-evaluation as circumstances warranted and as new information became available. Changing one's mind when presented with new, credible evidence becomes available is what intelligent people do.

That does not seem to be Trumps concept with the Easter fantasy...

I am greatly disappointed that the public gathering ban does not extend to worship services.

There is talk of a Part 4 to the stimulus coming soon.
