350,000It's pretty crazy that they all faffed about so much earlier this year but it's never too late. Anyway, I hope they can get this done- the nation has suffered something like 300,000 excess deaths this year and they need to get the ball rolling soon
and about 1% of that number have died of covid in the last 24 hours.
Its ****ed...
There is a Jimmy Dore vid upthread where a small business owner says that months ago, or when the second spike started the government should have given everyone or every household in the US $20,000 and told them to go home for two months and shut the country down. Or at least shut it down as much as possible. He says this in the context of the CARES Act that Val is so unhappy with Sanders about. Cos the money that went to all them rich campaigners could have covered that.
It may not be that simple to achieve but its a very good point anyway and if they had aimed in that direction instead of doing the usual American thing things may have been better over there right now.
