Not that I'm trying to defend Pelosi but I read they didn't like it because it didn't ensure the funds wouldn't be used properly. IE, they wanted to ensure to disallow stock buy backs, ensure the workers received the bailout funds etc etc.

I could be wrong on that one though, I've only done minor research...

It was basically the same deal as the 2008 bail out.

Zero rules. Just a fuck ton of free cash with little regulation for the worker.

They've already given the stock market 1.5trillion. I think it's only fair they make a few rules to stop the corporations spunking the cash on bounuses and buy back schemes.

Just give the money to the citizens.

It's theirs after all

Tito Ortiz shares conspiracy theory about the coronavirus outbreak | BJPenn.com
“Remember in China when they’re doing all the protesting?” Ortiz added, seemingly referencing the protests in Hong Kong, which are still ongoing. “They had so many people out on the streets and everyone wanted to be like us Americans and chanting the national anthem. And then all of a sudden boom, that s**t was over within in a day.

”People were following Coronavirus [as] the most craziest thing in the world,” he continued. “Now you don’t see any of those people protesting, do you? At all. I think in Italy they’re doing the same thing. You don’t see those protests any more, do ya? Pretty crazy.”

If yall dont know about them, one of the best news and opinion sources imo is "rising" ... they began only a year ago and are growing fast for a reason

Krystel ball is populist left, sagar enjetti is populist right. They sometimes agree. Sometimes dont. But they are honest actors.

I think of few of you will admire kristel as much as I do, and many of you will dig sagar. He is honest tho. He doesnt playsides like the corrupt MSM

Here is his take on the round 3 senate bill

Hey gun guys, are range rounds lethal for self defense?
Depends what you mean by range rounds.

If you mean FMJ (full metal jacket ball ammo) the answer is yes.

The problem is Over-Penetration.

Self defense ammo is usually HP (Hollow Point) or Other Tipped.

Meaning it will expand in Soft Targets letting go of all it's energy.

Hopefully stopping in said target or with less energy should it keep going.

That's what you don't want.

FMJ will more than likely go thru your target and potentially hit anything else.

But all that takes is knowing what's behind your target before pulling the trigger.

So long story short.

Yes it's lethal... But be smart before the shot.

Frat End.
( I had to carry FMJ's for a bit before I sold my chewtoys for a box of HP's)

I'm not saying that it isn't great that Cuban doctors are there (because it is), but Cuba should not be seen as entirely altruistic in this endeavor.

The country not only uses doctors as good PR/to take attention away from widespread poverty on the island, it also uses the doctors as a means of income.

For example, the Brazilian government was paying the Cuban government directly around $3,600 a month per doctor in 2018 and the Cuban government only gave the doctors a little over 25% of that.

75% tax is a lot, but $900 a month probably goes a long way on Cuba, right? I'm guessing they don't have student loans to pay either.

They always work for 8c an hour.easy solution.dont go to prison
some states they don't get paid at all...check out the Last Week Tonight on for-profit prisons...and the "Free Meek Mill" documentary.

it's not as simple as "don't go to prison".

Thanks. I have a couple mags loaded with hollow points and hydro shocks. But my extra ammo is blunt full metal jackets. Just curious.
