Stephen Schwartz @AtomicAnalyst · May 10, 2018 When the next pandemic occurs (and make no mistake, it will) and the federal government is unable to respond in a coordinated and effective fashion to protect the lives of US citizens and others, this decision by John Bolton and Donald Trump will be why. Top White House official in charge of pandemic response exits abruptly Timothy Ziemer's departure Tuesday and the disbanding of his team at the National Security Council signal a downgrading of global health security as a priority, experts warn. washingtonpost.com 1.2K 43.7K 70.2K
does anyone still support Trump, and say it out loud? my conservative friends are very quiet right now wondering if we will receive more help from congress!
and all these ‘conservatives’ taking the government hand out and at the same breath they cry socialism when a single mom gets some help from the government.
when our financial bubbles pop about every decade. FDR was the best president during the Great Depression, and now is not the time to be conservative. The Gov moves slow as a snell but we need them to use that unlimited credit right now, more than ever. Like FDR did. Only 1% of our deficit today is from all the programs and help from FDR.
Are now having buyer remorse. Hey some bought into his BS, some are still buying it. It takes a big person to see it now and admit it. You should hear some of my conservative friend....they're still lost.
I didn't say his programs ended the Great Depression. I was merely saying, there is a time to use our credit. Now is the time! Businesses, banks, power companies, small businesses, every individual American citizen. The stimulus will save us, just like FDR saved a generation during the Great Depression.
The economy slid back into recession in 1938 and U/E was just shy of 15% in 1940! FDR had NOTHING to do with us coming out of the GD.
And I am not sure what you are seeing now either. We are doing exactly what YOU are saying we should be doing i.e. deficit spending to keep the economy afloat.
Both parties voted for the massive spending for CV so not sure where the it's not time to be "conservative" is coming from. Virtually no one is arguing that government shouldn't be spending money to help people and save businesses due to no fault of the business owners or workers.
You have a warped sense of what conservatives stand for and against. But that's not just aimed at you. Many so called conservatives let me down on spending/debts/deficits (Pre-Covid) and one of those is Trump. Its my biggest gripe with him.
I'm happy our Gov has stepped up, including POTUS. I think congress needs to do more. People are hitting the streets in protest, because they are hungry. Starving to death, waiting on congress to come back to work.
Everybody making less than $75000 a year just got $1200! Do you know how far that goes on the McDonalds dollar menu? At a dollar for each meal, three meals a day, that's over ONE year!!!!
When it comes to the dollar menu he knows what he is talking about. Because with his busy schedule of begging and mooching on the street corner he does not always get to the soup kitchen on time for a free meal
Laffy for the fraud he is. We don't agree often, but kudos to you on this post. I will make one correction, Laffy's $1200, just like yours, is not sucking at the government's teat for survival. Its more like sucking the government's dick, but hey, you both have to do what you're best at, right?
