This bailout will go down as the biggest Hail Mary, that was never caught.
What’s left in the tank for the second round? Go long gold?

I agree that the fat cat bailouts suck
I also agree that working unemployed needed help.
But paying you more than you ever made is absurd.
I’m getting the feeling some of you also think the minimum wage should be $15 or $1,500 an hour. Or $15 million an hour. Let’s go full Zimbabwe. . .

You got a PPP loan. You're paying these people with government money and keeping whatever profit they generate for yourself. Of all the things to complain about, the one that pays you to post on TGR is the top of the shit list.
There are only two reasons for you to complain: either you make so much money from your employees' time that you wish you could get more of them, or you're worried the loan won't be forgiven if you can't get your payroll high enough. You could pay more and resolve either of those issues through good old supply and demand. Clearly though, crying on TGR really is the most productive use of your time. It's good that your employees are such hard workers.Last edited by jono; 07-02-2020 at 11:29 PM.

$600 is a tragedy, $600 million is a statistic.

Oh the horrors of the non rich getting a leg up finally. It is such a shame. At least the government was smart enough to save some to keep the mega corps form failing due to poor contingency planning while they were making millions in profit. That part is good. Amiright?

I don’t think corporations should get any bailout, I think the unemployed should get something for sure, if truly unemployed the $600 a week won’t make much of a difference, but it’s a start. I’m not okay with with giving an extra $600 a week to people that are basically still working full time.
Where is this money coming from? They just print more, really they don’t even do that. It’s created out of thin air and we will all have to pay for this down the road.

One of the worst jobs I ever had was because this guy was at the unemployment office waiting for a strong guy to come in so he could offer work right there in front of the unemployment people. So that clever asshole offered me a job doing construction demolition labor for minimum wage. I pulled a whole house full of mouse nests down in Taos, and got as sick as I’ve ever been, thought I might die, too weak to get up and go to the hospital. I was down for weeks. If it wasn’t hanta virus it was something that would give hanta virus a good old run for its money.
Anyway, I guess that’s a lil trick for all the awful slave drivers out there and a lil warning for my fellow slackers.
Ur welcomez.

I know about a dozen local businesses, mostly restaurants, that can't get enough staff to reopen because people are making more staying home than they can at work. Three are at risk of staying closed forever because the owners are tapped out, one is a family run place and they don't have the heart to offer the jobs back because of this so they're staying closed for a while longer. One store tried to call everyone back and they said no so the owner cut off their unemployment, a few days later all the windows got taken out at night and the place got wrecked.
As if the small biz community wasn't already in trouble, this will be devastating for the rest.
