They do not care about unemployed and starving citizens. If nothing passes the markets will be fine. I told you all I wouldn’t be surprised if nothing is passed and congress goes on recess.

Mitch wants protection for business that prevents them from being sued due to covid. Nancy said no way. Mitch said there is no negotiation on that.
Not happening this week.

My part time job cut my hours as of Aug and I think they doing some shady stuff it’s 25 hrs but 4 days a week. They purposely scheduled it like that so I won’t qualify for unemployment.
I’m bout to put 3 days f this
My actual job is overnight at the hospital I’m good but if I could get it I want it.

I dont think whatever they pass is going to be more beneficial to the unemployed or starving citizens. One side or the other will concede by Friday.

yeah but your earnings can not exceed your alloted amount by 25% or something like that.
my friend had her hours cut and she kkept getting an " exceeded earnings" message when filing. took her a month to realize that she should work less hours then file to get the 600

This one may be the straw that breaks the camels back to where stuff legit pops off if whatever passes has this in it. Mitch is playing with fire on this one. Forcing people back to work and they can’t sue if their place of employment is negligent. I wouldn’t be surprised if people take justice into their own hands (not encouraging it) but that’s going to make some people lose it.
That said. If Mitch wants to make this a non negotiable. The Dems need to play hardball too and make the $600 a non negotiable and have it retroactive to the week ending August 1st If they drag this out.

And that's Nancy's thought process. She and the Dem's are set on 600 hundred but I think they would negotiate to 400. That's some of the rumblings I have heard. Dems are at 200 a week.

Just imagine in an alternate universe we could've had 2000 a month, extra 600 a week in unemployment until the end of the year atleast and the curve would've flattened.

I just saw a story that said more families are reporting that they don't have enough food to eat. More and more families are running out of money...
And these dummies are arguing of protection for huge corporations....smh
