I can understand the government wanting to help its distressed citizens, but why should any money go to corporations?
They don't vote, they can't contract the coronavirus.
Oh, and how in hell is the treasury going to come up with an extra two trillion dollars?
The national deficit mounts and nobody, but nobody, seems to care.
It's almost enough to make me think fondly of Bill Clinton: at least he knew what a balanced budget was.
