    UBI, employment insurance, moratorium on mortgage/rental payments, moratoriums on evictions, tax foreclosure and energy cutoffs.

    Free testing for anyone who needs it; 100% paid coverage COVID-19 treatment.

    Claw back last year's tax cut.

    No corporate bailouts without a public equity stake.

    Agreed. I figure there'll be a cap on UBI. I haven't seem anything on whether there'll be a cap on mortgage moratorium. Have you?

    support to citizens will run up the debt, esp if income taxes are seriously cut, even for one year

    If Biden wins, Dems take both houses, the Repugs/oligarchy will be screaming every day to cut Medicare, Medicaid, SS, SNAP, unemployment, disability, while screaming also about increasing the MIC towards $1T/year

    They should show some responsibility on UBI rather than just give money to everyone, need to means test it. I’m actually saving money right now working from home and not commuting or eating at restaurants. Giving me free money in addition to what I already make would be dumb.

    The Sherrod Brown & Cory Booker $4500 a person paid up front plan is complete lunacy.

    I’ll happily take it though , just think any plan giving someone like me free money is stupid.

    What's crazier is if there are no caps on mortgage moratoriums.

    Though sending 50billion to the airlines is okay? Those airlines have been raking it in with both hands for over 10 years of a bull market. Where is all that profit? Use it now to keep your company, employees included, whole.

    Not a bailout dime until they open the books and we see. NOT A IN' DIME.

    Dude, "the debt" is going to skyrocket, no matter what...no-matter-what. & that's fine as long as (Joe Public) is kept whole during this crisis.

    I honestly don't care if there's a cap or not. Seems like setting a cap just opens up more political arguments that delay the whole thing. Top priority is getting money back into people's hands ASAP. The rich can be encouraged to donate their share and decide for themselves.

    Oh, and what these assholes do with profit is not fortify the average Joe on the line, but buyback their own stock, which inflates their value. CEO and executive benefits, not average Joe. But those buybacks have bit them in the ass right now, thus why they're asking for the 60 billion.

    & we're going to give it to 'em...with a stern caveat from Warren:::"I'm going to watch them real close this time."

    If you just stimulate people, they will stimulate the economy and there is no need for long-term corporate handouts..that's just robbery..no mortgage payments for at least 3 months, UBI of $3k for every adult and another $1k per child born within 9 months of passage of the bill...free mass mobile testing...free healthcare if you catch the virus...

    ...pass those and stock market booms tomorrow
