If they wanted to fix things they should have just taken all the money in the first stimulus/relief bill, divided it by ~330 million citizens and sent each one a check for their share. Instead, they always pay off their cronies.
If we're going to borrow in the name of the taxpayer, give the taxpayer the money. Give every family of 4 $150k and see what that does for business.

Do you know what you just said? Someone who thinks like this is called something in this country. Something, special. Dare to take a guess?
To be fair to Paul, he uses Marx here in the best manner I have ever seen an American politician use him. Usually, Marx is thrown around as a punchline and a menacing sounding adjective. Here, he uses it properly. I, of course, disagree somewhat with his thesis in this speech, but at least he is rational. He is on the other side of the fence from me on economics, but he realizes that Conservatives for stimulus are not Conservatives at all. Thus, this begs the question, what do they stand for?

Marx was a degenerate not in a political sense on a personal level, he never worked, he was lazy and rarely washed.
These so called intellectuals were degenerate morphine takers and sexual degenerates
Marx’s family were no better, mixed up with like wise degenerates and either ending up in mental institutions or killing them selves.
As for Marxist theory it is a theory for YOU not them.
Come the revolution you will do as your bloody told!
And be damn sure you and yours will NOT be siiting on the top table.
No wonder Russia and China despise the West.
They tried this Communism and ditched it after 100 million dead.
Dont ever think the a Chinese are communists, they are Chinese first, and using their form of communism to destroy the West.

They can keep my $600, I just want my job back. This bill enables the airlines to call back 32,000 furloughed employees.
I was furloughed from United Airlines on Oct. 1 and I've been collecting unemployment ever since. We've been waiting on this deal for months, its time to get back to work.

Yes, Marx in England was not a very useful citizen. Rarely bathed, relied on his friend for shelter and food, etc. This does not make his ideas any less powerful. Good ideas or bad is not the issue here, but meaningful and powerful. Are they still studied today even though he was a degenerate? Yes. Luther had some powerful ideas and he was also cookoo. Just because you are crazy or lazy does not mean you cannot alter the future.

The old saw about A billion here, a billion there and pretty soon you're talking real money is now completely outdated.
Now it's apparently A trillion here, a trillion there and pretty soon you're talking real money.
It's so wonderful to put the US taxpayer on the hook for another trillion and then send him/her $600 by way of thank you.
Still, I'm happy that the US taxpayer will fund Pakistan to the tune of $10 million to be distributed to “gender programs.” What US heart doesn't beat with pride when learning that?
Tulsi Gabbard (IMO one of the semi rational Dem primary contestants) was spot on when she said:
Quote
“$600 is a slap in the face to every American struggling due to the pandemic. You deserve better. I voted against the 5,593-page spending bill that gave billions to corporate interests, the military industrial complex & other countries, leaving crumbs for you who need help most”
But hey..a trillion here, a trillion there. What could possibly go wrong.
In other news Bitcoin @ $23k.

Dont forget about the other trillion and a half they printed to help pay for everything else until next Sept...9 months away
"Congress passes legislation with $900 billion in coronavirus relief and $1.4 trillion to fund the government through Sept. 30"
Whats after a trillion?
My guess is bankrupcy and a reset of the us dollar that will shock the average citizen

Only people who discuss Marx are pseudo middleclass academics. These academics have no idea about the working classes. How would they? Marxists despise the working classes as they have proved to be a disappointment to the socialist myth of equality.
Marxism is NOT discussed at all, nothing about the Gulags, nothing about the purges nothing about the 100 of millions who died.
Come the revolution you will do as your bloody told.
And by the way you and yours will NOT be sitting at the top table.

Why are we giving 600 to people that have been working overtime since april?
My last check went to TD Ameritrade.
Have you guys tried to hire a contractor? You are lucky to talk to them, too busy. If you are not working, you are not trying. The best job market I've seen. With a driver's license and clean pee, the world is yours.
Where is the problem? It is no other persons fault someone decided to major in thought, in place of production.

$500 million for border security in Jordan, another $250 million for border security in Lebanon, Egypt, Tunisia and Oman.
$33 million for what are called "democracy programs" in Venezuela. $231 million to help pay down the national debt of Sudan
$10 million on what it calls "gender programs" in Pakistan. Tens of millions of dollars set aside to recruit and retain women in the Afghan army
Ah well. Create another trillion out of thin air, obligate the US taxpayer as the borrower and then send shiploads of cash to other countries to help them with their border security while Dementia Joe Xiden promises to tear down our border walls. What a maroon.
Yeah...damn anyone that wants some poor bastilge in the US to get a bit more of the magically invented money he's on the hook to pay back. HALE NO! Not when Pakistanis need some gender programs!
The entire US Congress..save maybe Rand Paul, should be gently ushered out of DC and sent home, told they need to find a new, real job because they just got fired. They're all crazy.

I have only read Gulag Archipelago in haste and only once. It was for a course, quite forgettable for me in those days, really.
So marxist concentration camps are as forgettable as Germand concentration camps?
Western educational facilities are in need of reform if individuals learn nothing from what they study.
It is not suprising that the majority of social science academics are socialist in outlook.
They have NEVER left the education system since the age of 5 years of age.
The so called Labour party in the UK had its worst election defeat since 1935, it had been infultrated by a group called "Momentum" it represented no one from the working classes.
Corbyn the leader was a millitant marxist who called people comrade.
These are your typical Marxists who have never had a real job, he is worth $6 million.

I'm driving my car in a city parking lot. I see a spot, so I put my hazards on then position myself to back in and put my car in reverse, at that moment the Mercedes SUV behind me proceeds to drive up my bumper, hazard lights and reverse lights and honks. I'm at a loss so I honk back. The SUV can do much but damage their SUV. The SUV backs up ten feet and I back into parking. The SUV drives into a spot 20 yards away. We both get out. The young twentysomething woman gets out and goes strait to the entrance without even a glance.

You are correct, zack, I should give it another go. The reading list for that course was all a bit dry and dark, for me. There was a work on the Armenian genocide, too that I have forgotten about. At the time, I cannot say that I gave socialism any thought. In fact, I did not even care about politics, political systems, or government. I only cared about airplanes and wars. So, I think I read it at the wrong time. I will reread it and see how I react to it now that I am more learned and aware.

Why was the Orange Clown AWOL during the covid bill dissuasion? Much of what the Orange Clown was crying about in the omnibus bill came originally from the White House.
