    I'd chunk the billions in the SSI account or some remittance as part of a front loaded qualitative easing program.
    Cutting out the middle-man by helping people directly.

    I wish we had tried that in 2009.

    So called helicopter money isn't the worst idea in the world for an economy thrown out of joint.

    Back in the days when I was on the front line of pharmaceutical pricing compliance, I was continuously staggered by the pricing/rebate manipulation by the big GPOs. There are billions at play in these schemes.....and that's exactly what they are....schemes.

    'Everyone. Needs. To. Watch...' Democrat Dianne Feinstein Explain to Children Why She Won't Back Green New Deal

    "This is a fight for our generation's survival. Her reaction is why young people desperately want new leadership in Congress."

    Feinstein responding with "smugness and disrespect" when the group explains that while their futures are the ones that will be impacted

    The Senator responded by asking for their ages, stating: "Well, you did not vote for me."


    "I’ve been doing this for 30 years," Feinstein says in the video.

    "You come in here and say it has to be my way or the highway.

    I don't respond to that...I know what I'm doing.

    Maybe people should listen a little bit."

    I have ancient friends on the dark side who hate DiFi, but they'd love her slapping down these uppity kids.

    DiFi and BigFinance hubby have net worth of about $100M

    a bit tone deaf, but I guess you missed the part where she offered one of the kids an internship.

    Feinstein said what she said but the unedited vid tells a somewhat different tale.

    no, it doesn't.

    bash away, I can think of few people more deserving -- it's likely that a majority of the air pollution that has been released in all human history happened while she was in office.

    "Democrats are setting themselves up for failure in the general election by agreeing to every single progressive policy touted by the activist left including the Green New Deal, taxes on the wealthy, Medicare for All, and now packing the Supreme Court,” argued Sarah Dolan, executive director of the pro-GOP opposition research group ‘America Rising.’

    “Our planet is going to face disaster if we don’t turn this ship around,” she said, as she chopped sweet potatoes. “And so it’s basically like, there is a scientific consensus that the lives of children are going to be very difficult and it does lead, I think young people, to have a legitimate question. Ya know, should—is it okay to still have children?”

    All prominent Democratic 2020 presidential hopefuls in the Senate voted down the measure, including Bernie Sanders of Vermont, Kamala Harris of California, Cory Booker of New Jersey, Kirsten Gillibrand of New York, Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota and Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts. The final vote was 53-44 to end Democratic delaying tactics -- seven votes short of the 60 needed.

    These goofy dems running the party these days are going to hand Trump a landslide victory and give the House back to the republicans. This group running for POTUS are a bunch of kooks.

    Nope, because I couldn't care less. Both parties are totally screwed up. Neither party is any good at getting things done. However, both are superb at blocking the other side. If it was up to me I'd get a big broom and sweep 'em all out of office.

    More "both parties" lazy thinking. Rather than try to figure out if they both are equally bad, you go with what is known as a "false equivalence" mistake in reasoning.

    "Both sides" have arguments in the debate over Flat Earth, so they must be equally valid theories... right?

    Reality rarely works that way.

Feel free to abort all the babies you want, allow all the drugs on the planet to freely come into the USA, raise your taxes (oh wait, you low life's don't pay taxes....my bad), live off of my taxes by getting food stamps and living in your rundown Section 8 housing, allow gangs to kill, steal and cause us law abiding taxpayers to foot the bill while suckers like you rot in prison. Do as you please, random guy because seriously I don't give a damn about you.....PERIOD..! Now if you don't mind I need to take the time to at you.

    Isn't the whole point of the GND that systemic change is needed and individual lifestyle tweaks won't get the job done?

    Democrats won the house because moderate Democrats won primaries and then turned red districts blue. AOCs victory had nothing to do with it. She just replaced blue with blue. If Pelosi cant rein in her juniors like AOC and the party keeps sliding left it puts those new seats in danger. That is why 27 Democrats voted with Republicans last week. Self survival.

    CC in the pose of the purveyor of conventional wisdom, wishcasting the DSA genie back into the bottle. AOC has turned him into a defender of Nancy Pelosi, no mean feat for a male chauvinist pig like CC.
