American population: 330,483,530
Stimulus bill: $2,000,000,000,000 ($2 Trillion)
Dividing the cost by every American is $6,051.74 The government could have given every person over $6,000, but instead will give $1,400 to each adult under a certain income. Want to know where the missing 96% of your tax dollars went? Here you go. .
1. $300,000,000 for Migrant and Refugee Assistance pg.. 147
2. $10,000 per person for student loan bailout
3. $100,000,000 to NASA, because, who knows why.
4. $20,000,000,000 to the USPS, because why the hell not
5. $300,000,000 to the Endowment for the Arts - because of it
6. $300,000,000 for the Endowment for the Humanities/ because no one even knew that was a thing
7. $15,000,000 for Veterans Employment Training / for when the GI Bill isn't enough.
8. $435,000,000 for mental health support
9. $30,000,000,000 for the Department of Education stabilization fund/ because that will keep people employed (all those zeros can be confusing, that’s $30 BILLION)
10. $200,000,000 to Safe Schools Emergency Response to Violence Program
11. $300,000,000 to Public Broadcasting / NPR has to be bought by the Democrats.
12. $500,000,000 to Museums and Libraries / Who the hell knows how we are going to use it.
13. $720,000,000 to Social Security Admin / but get this only 200,000,000 is to help people. The rest is for admin costs.
14. $25,000,000 for Cleaning supplies for the Capitol Building / I kid you not it's on page 136.

24. $9,000,000 Misc. Senate Expenses pg. 134
25. $100,000,000 to Essential Air carriers pg. 162. This of note because the Airlines are going to need billions in loans to keep them afloat ($100,000,000 is chump change.)
26. $40,000,000,000 goes to the Take Responsibility to Workers and Families Act This sounds like it's direct payments for workers pg. 164.

Dems might be sitting pretty after the stimulus bill. And especially if this scumbag Mcconnell doesn't finish his term. And if they primary Manchin and other Blue Dog scum.

Legislation informally referred to as the Daniel Cameron Election Bill is moving through the Kentucky General Assembly.

This is exactly why Daniel bytched up and threw the case, so he can takeover for when Mitch retires.

Both siders do realize that if the GA runoffs went to the GOP that this bill wouldn't have been even in consideration? You do realize that or no?
Both side deniers don't want to realize that regardless of GA, Manchin proves what it means to use your leverage if you want tangibles

Soon as Mitch Steph aside Dems better go all in on a viable candidate for the Kentucky senate and explain to the residents of Kentucky in McConnells tenor as the senator what has he done for the state of Kentucky to benefit its citizens? Just sit back and let it stew
