Shame the president decided there would be no more stimulus before the election (and then backtracking with promises to the rich to try and appease the market).

Where people get the notion that the US President backtracks to support the rich is beyond me. The stimulus package is being held by Democrats and thus making it strictly political by Nancy Pelosi. The Democrats evenly blatantly admitted it would pass once the new President would take office and pass in Feb of 2021. Too late for many folks who need it now not next year. The President though it seems like backtrack figured that out pretty quick but the Democrats keep saying it leaves out unemployment, welfare and other programs when in fact I read the entire 3 hr packet and no where does it leave any of the claims out, but in fact adds more money to them as well as small businesses covered, low wage job earners and the airline industry. I personally disagree on the airlines as they charge a hefty fee already. With this said, the only profiteers and laughing all the way to the bank or the brokers.
