After? That's past tense. What we do is elect Biden and go with the Democratic party's infrastructure, healthcare and education programs.

@Northwest As good as the ideas are, there will be no money to fund them. The best option (and I am not even sure its legal) is to roll out those programs state by state.😷

This is not only about money, it's about refocusing the efforts on a new infrastructure push. Money will have to materialize to keep people employed and the economy moving.

@Northwest I agree thats the principle of Keynsian Economics. And a great idea. The flaw is that America has spent over a decade printing money backed by nothing and 4 years burning bridges and turning friends into enemies. Until now thats just business.. But this pandemic is global and every other economy is going to be suffering and want theit IOUs paid, rather than to keep lending. If Trump does manage to get elected you will see a number of nations by pass America as a customer until they arrange payment, and/or agree to pay in something other than paper dollars. Then Americas plan B is the biggest yard sale the world has ever seen.😷
