When Obama took office in January 2009, the unemployment was almost 8%, people were losing their homes and jobs. In February, 2009, one month in office, The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 was signed into law. Not one Republican voted for it.
Over ten years $800 billion was spent to help people keep their jobs and to create new jobs. Other parts of the bill helped people pay for COBRA so they wouldn’t lose their healthcare and extended unemployment benefits. Plus many more provisions to get the economy back on track.
The first year was tough, but the plan stopped the bleeding and the recovery was slow but steady over the next ten years.
So what’s going on now???? What’s the plan??? Who has time to retweet debunked conspiracy theories ? He’s not equipped for this and he’s got to go.
Where is the recovery plan?

The only plan was and is to make sure his wealthy cronies, his family, and him get as many tax breaks as they can and make as much money as they can off the taxpayers.

So simple right! No. Many jobs are gone and not coming back. The deficit isn’t going anywhere and is only getting worse. Without a plan this country will be looking at a depression. Just thinking all we have to do is open the doors to the restaurants and we will be back to normal is awfully naive.Thelma Harper wrote: ↑Thu May 28, 2020 7:16 am THE RECOVERY PLAN
Open everything RIGHT NOW!
Fire up those machines and factories and PRODUCE!

Tongue in cheek sarcasm. From where I'm sitting, that looks like the plan from Trump and his groupies.Lemons wrote: ↑Thu May 28, 2020 9:36 amSo simple right!
