Covid Relief Package Within Reach As Senate Leaders Agree To Compromise | MSNBC
Hope it comes sooner than later.
To many of us struggling.
Don’t let us all forget how the government has treated us after this pandemic is over. #neverforget
If you add that up, if they worked 40 hour work weeks that would be about $85.10 per hour.
They make $170 per hour.
@Moto Matt maybe you should re-read the comment.
@PTREK BOX BREAKS Democrats are filth too. We won’t get anywhere ignoring that. Dems play good cop to Republicans bad cop “oooh we just couldn’t DOO anything!”
@Fractal Ninja sick. Someone stocking shelves at walmart is at least 170 times more useful to society
@PTREK BOX BREAKS Two wings on the same bird
1200 wasn’t even enough for most Americans, wth is 600 gonna do
@Samuel Lee make sure you spend it on drugs like a responsible adult
@Legba Kukulan going straight into savings. not desperate for cash like some of these people are complaining all the time.
@Samuel Lee pfft loser
@Samuel Lee Imagine thinking it’s free.
@Legba Kukulan judging by your comments. I’m replying to a loser.
Ah yes. $600 that will almost cover half of 1 months rent.
@Callsign Starbuck please don’t flatter yourself, you have no wits. You are the one that believed your vote mattered all this time. You’re a fool, but God loves you.
@K.J. Paaschewho would move to a desolate town far away from any employment? Are you retired or something ?
@Chi bruh cali is not for everyone. You get here and every left turn is someone trying to charge you for a permit or homeless begging for money.
@Willow Ramirez yea I trust you are right about that, but at least that weather is pretty nice.. and those palm trees… shiiii
@Lori Beth they just passed it so yea we get 600 smf theyre so sad and cheap
Pennies for the masses, billions for the chosen
@D Rob we good.👍 you voting?
@Timestamp guy ya, we believe we can not complain unless we vote. Stay strong.
@Timestamp guy where are you from?
@D Rob taxachuessets.😅
@Timestamp guy god bless you sir. You were one of the states to started an amazing experiment
$600.
THAT…is “relief?”
They (Democrats and Republicans) make 6 figures a year, vote on pay raises for themselves have blue cross blue shield ppo insurance at our expense and give us table scraps

@Christopher TheCarpenter it’s SICKENING! We have to vote these bums out if it’s the last thing we do.
@Christopher TheCarpenter RIGHT! When it came time to bail out the banks -they found BILLIONS …now actual Americans that are pending homelessness need help….$600? VOTE EM ALL OUT
Let us form a United American alliance, all Americans, all colors, all religion, all sexuality, all sexual preference, United we stand, divided we Beg.
Just keep playing with people’s lives smh
They should only get $600/month and have their accounts frozen. Then, we can chat with them after a year goes by…
@theL81Again Try a 100 dollars a month. Because even if they manage the 600 it has been over 6 months since the last one.
Goh wow

oh yes
Either they got jokes or they are giving out tents with land too.
@Dale hauk that’s a start, we all must unite and stop buying into Democrat or Republican, replace the media who pushes propaganda
@Christopher TheCarpenter We need a new party! Yes!

Yoh wow
https://youtu.be/zFJ2AN_CZH8
oh yes
you know where you can stick 600 dollars congress.
i was thinking the same, congress has no shame
Make sure to reach deep up there to get your change.
OK, send me your $600 back, if you don’t appreciate what we tax-PAYERS gave ya. Get a job, or start a business. I’ll give ya $20 to cut my lawn, OK deadbeat?
Do what I do, I am going to return the money to the US treasury and tell them I don’t want it.
Hoh wow
https://youtu.be/zFJ2AN_CZH8
oh yes
The 1980’s just called, they want their stimulus check back!
You are welcome to deny it and send it back, they will let you
In the 1980’s that would have been enough to get you a VCR. In 2020 it’s enough to get you a PS5.
@aaron turnupseed Okay, you got me there, Airstream trailer dweller.
Best comment!! 😁☺😜✌
Yoh wow
https://youtu.be/zFJ2AN_CZH8
oh yes
Congress had no time delays voting in their pay raise.
@T. R. Campbell that’s an excellent idea. But theirs no way it will happen if they are the ones voting on it.
@John Ames – It’s Tyranny
@Timestamp guy Ahhhhh Haaaaa! You have identified the problem. Some states that I know of have imposed term limits on their state officials. So, it can be done. The problem is going to be getting it done on the federal level. My Gawd, we have some in the house and the senate that have been there for over 30 years.
@T. R. Campbell me and you will be long gone when and if that happens or a revolution happens.
@Timestamp guy Very likely so. This is why we have to crank up the younger generation to insist on this. It might be difficult for them to understand but the political class in theory still works for us. The one advantage that we have is we can vote them out.
We need to stop their paychecks
Screwing the poor and giving the rich a reach around.
And calling us in to mop up after for minimum wage.
@Luis Galindo We’re expendable, excuse me, I mean essential. 😉
Yup. That’s the Dems for ya!
@Oil Drillin’ your ignorance is making you delusional.
Yoh wow
https://youtu.be/zFJ2AN_CZH8
oh yes
I feel offended that they’re giving us 600$ while pastors will get millions
@luke7137 yes, first kick DT and most of the GOP out of Congress…life wi only get better after that.
@Drinks Watere but for the most part, red welfare states will be okay. 🙄
@Drinks Watere lol. its true the elites have put us against eachother. Donald trump is going to save us.
Get a theology degree and become a pastor then.
@luke7137 i MIGHT agree with you if donald came out and demanded $2k like its alleged he wanted to. Donald bowed to his Republican handlers on that one and stayed out of it, if we believe the reports
$600 isnt relief. Its a little band aid on a broken bone.
What will 600 buy? Groceries for a month.
Problem is some people really need more money. Low income families. Why do married couple making $145,000 a year should get paid same as married couple making $50,000 a year.
@lunaticgenius right! I lost my small business due to these shutdowns. Let’s exchange contact information and give me your stimulus check because I am worse off than you 🙂
Its throwing pennies at the homeless man in your neighborhood who hasn’t eaten in weeks..
Can I ask, please don’t feel obligated to answer, how much rent would an average 3 br home be per week, I’m curious to know if they’ve actually helped at all 🙁
I hate how now they feel like “helping” the American people, only because this is what’s keeping them from going on vacation…..
We should just take over DC
Now they will pat each other’s back for “saving” Americans
ჰო
What “help”? change from their pockets is all this is. In an attempt to seem like they are doing something so people won’t revolt on our broken hoverment that litteraly does nothing for the people it is supposed to serve
Goh wow
https://youtu.be/zFJ2AN_CZH8
oh yes
Let’s move on Washington and physically remove all these fools in a peaceful manner of courses.
You all took 2 minutes to literally say nothing.
Hb a good
They won’t help Americans only themselves some lame excuse will be made.
Sad yet true.
ჰობი
joetri970- Congress is not there to help you, they are there to line there pockets.
@jack cogburn Yes they seem to be something of a club who’s motto ought to be “Me First!”.
Toh wow
https://youtu.be/zFJ2AN_CZH8
oh yes
That is our money they wont give back to us when we need it. We need a tax strike.
Thanks for the crumbs, I wouldn’t want to intrude on someone’s 3rd Porsche or 2nd vacation house.
