Banks were being bailed out since all the last qtr of 2019 and before. Trillions of $$$s going to the bank/trading houses all FDIC insured.
Not to mention this stock market rally is just another bail out opportunity for corp and all the big league players to sell into all the Federal Reserves
Buying... Why the retail smalls stack up buys for the big sell-off soon to come

We should play a guessing game, as to how much your Congress-critter and their families got.

You and your $1200, while they got millions.

All the big dogs came together wrote the bill and then while congress was voting it in, they all already had their fingers on the go button to receive every cent possible
for their representative groups and why very few small businesses got nary a penny, it was gone before the last vote was in...

Treasury doesn't want to make the list public because it could become a hit-list for rampaging mobs.

Take California for example. I'm sure that there were plenty of connected people that got millions in the state. Meanwhile 20% of renters didn't make this month's rent payment. In a state of 45% renters with a 39 million population that means about 3 million people are looking at getting economically displaced in the state. The governor has a moratorium in place barring evictions until the end of July. All of a sudden, 3 million people are going to be scampering wondering what will happen to them. There will be a certain amount of social friction between those losing their residency and those who got a more substantial bailout.

Police are going to have a very difficult job. The potential for atrocities is high.

Golly...the mainstream media is finally catching up to what was reported on Patrick.net a couple of years ago.

The Paycheck Protection Program was enacted as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act). All of the Paycheck Protection Program's original $349 billion was allocated between April 3 and April 16, 2020. The Small Business Administration stopped accepting new PPP applications on April 16, 2020.[66][103] $342.3 billion was for PPP loans, and $6.7 billion was for lender reimbursements for processing loan applications that were approved.[be][103] Between April 3 and April 16, 2020, there were 1.7 million loans made, and 4,975 lenders approved loans. The average loan amount was $206,000. Of all loans, 74 percent were for $150,000 or less.[103] Businesses in the construction industry received 13.12 percent of the total of loan amounts, the largest percentage of any classification. The next four highest classifications were professional, scientific, and technical services with 12.65 percent; manufacturing with 11.96 percent; health care and social assistance with 11.65 percent; and accommodation and food services with 8.91 percent.[103]

On June 11, Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin told the Senate Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship that PPP loan recipients' names and loan amounts were confidential and would not be publicly released

The PPP was a trap that was set, that was meant to entrap Conservative company owners. But conservative people by nature, if they took the money, did so lawfully to the letter of how this program was set up.
The Liberal free shit creeps were the ones that took out $60K for a company that had zero employees, many of them incorporated for the sole purpose of getting the loan, and then spending it like it was found money.

This is one big area I cannot support Trump on. Almost everything else Im in 100% but not this...

If they did it would wipe out their donors, and put them all in prison.

The rushed out COVID gene therapies and his pro get the gene therapy stance.

Paul Pelosi received huge PPP benefits, so you can probably rest assured it was a form of graft from the get go. Maybe it was his slush fund when he was cruising the gay bars and pedo palaces.

Woops ! ! ! ! !

Looks like small business owners ain't that well connected after all. I guess we will see if any Hollywood creeps get time in the pokey,

Small business was never "well connected" on a Federal level. Only big business can afford that level of bribes.

I guess that's why they need 80,000 armed IRS agents . . .

Any guesses on how many lawyers took the free PPP money???

Anu guesses on how many of them took a wee bit too much ???
