Let me get this straight.
President Trump want's to give us $2000 and give small businesses the majority of the Stimulus. Congress wants to give us a $600 slap in the face, and fund the rest of the world, but Trump's the bad guy??? 🤔🤔🤔

@carpediem Lazy thinking. Most politicians are attorneys, medical professionals, business owners, entrepreneurs or investors.
The people you mock probably have more education than do you or me. They have been financially successful. Many are in touch with their constituents' needs, many others are not. "Politicians" are not formless things any more than politics is just a racket. These are the same people you and I vote (or don't vote) for, whom we choose to represent us when we can't be there, whose job security hinges on our satisfaction with the job they've done. Politicians don't happen; we create them. If you don't like them, create better.

@Graylight If anyone knows anything about being lazy it would be a liberal. And I don't "create" people. I have quite a bit experience in local political activity having previously been a party chair in my county for over a decade. I saw the level of activism and that is what I'm referring to. They are driven by getting elected and re-elected. Very limited representation on either side. Unless of course you happen to be a large contributor.
