Tromp's 2.3tn tax giveaway probably added more money to the economy at present, due to primacy.

PPP was a terrible idea.

I received $28K in PPP towards the end of the program for doing slightly worse than two years prior. Yet I was an "essential worker" and theoretically was allowed to work through COVID. So granted COVID presented challenges to my personal business, but was I not rewarded for underachieving? I don't even employ anyone but myself and only 50% of my income comes from my job...

Even if you do PPP, it should have been limited to paying rent and equipment/service leases for businesses that actually employ people.

Low confidence in democracy at a tenuous moment and no one wanting to admit the emperor has no clothes

Also, neither Biden nor trump are very intelligent. I’m sure we have better leaders somewhere in this country

But it’s quite obvious that lobbyists and corporate profiteers have too much influence in the US. The moneyed class who don’t do honest work love the policies of Jerome Powell. He’s helped my portfolio, though if I had his job I wouldn’t make decisions based on helping Wall Street over main street

Rich people are usually immoral. Doesn’t mean giving up freedom to a state that would just make others rich. Marxism is impossible and dumb (+ evil and gay)

Just need to ban lobbying and have a better electoral method than two parties that promote retards

Why does addressing this mean giving up freedom to the state? I may use words like comrade but I am not a "pure" Marxist.

Also, how do you want to get lobbying banned within the two party system? How do you give third parties more power in this system?
