SC the butt of many jokes, but Trey Gowdy and Tim Scott were/are two really sharp dudes from the state.
Good question, what's interesting is how many here just accepted the government lied to them for their own good, lost them money in the stock market, 401K's, and are okay with it, really? Instead of just admitting Trump screwed up, you're going with it's okay we were lied too, it was for our own good? FYI even though they "knew" they did nothing for testing, nothing for gathering PPE, they could have least ordered more TP.
When doesn't the government lie to the population under the presumption of knowing what's best. More interesting that there's people who believe them on anything. Also the dog in the background was funny. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
Sorry, the govt doesn't tell you where to invest your 401k or stocks, that's all on you (or y'all). If you want to be aggressive you win and lose big. I learned with the door com bubble. Your price of admission, paid. "Past performance is no guarantee of future results"
Agreed, but I guess when a senator tells his donors to get out Feb 27th that's okay to some. Not worried my money is mostly tied up in Annuities.
There could be room for a class action, SEC insider information complaint, or congressional hand slap could be attempted, if proof that it wasn't a public comment was evident and the senator passed privileged information... There were saavy folks that saw the China problem and dashed for the doors without the senator's info.
Any politicians that acted on financially, early sensitive confidential information in relation to the pandemic needs to publicly prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
Just saw an article about how the lawmakers were working on ways to address the issue of employers having a hard time getting people to come back to work because they’re making more on unemployment than by working. Apparently the current plan is to allow people to keep receiving some of their unemployment benefits after they return to work. So basically they are screwing the people who are still working and making less than if they were unemployed and once this is all over they’re going to screw them again by giving a weekly bonus to those workers who were previously unemployed. I haven’t laid off any employees or cut any benefits or pay and all my employees do make more than the break even point for NC where people get paid more on unemployment than working, but if they decide to extend the unemployment benefits to cover people once they return to work them I am thinking I should offer everyone the option to be laid off for a couple weeks (ie take a paid vacation compliments of the federal govt) then re-hired in order to make them eligible for the bonus.
