I wouldn’t complain for an instant if small businesses actually got the money. I just think that it should be disclosed that they did.

And what happens later when we find out that the all went to special interests; nope, I paid my taxes and there is no reason to hide where it went...

Congress passed the stimulus law. If Kanye West owned a business, he probably qualified for the money. Most people cannot comprehend how huge an amount of money $3 trillion is. That is enough to send $9,000 to every man, woman, and child in the country. But, people who didn't have a business received only a maximum of $1,200, and those who made more than $100K, got nothing. The money was targeted at people who own businesses and many of them are wealthy.

I'm just glad that people had jobs to go back to once states began to reopen. Those businesses that got shut down or were forced to operate under greatly reduced capacity still had expenses to pay. The ones who got the most money also probably hemorraged the most in the way of losses. We could have had ghost towns with lots of shuttered businesses and people out of work. I'm glad that's not the case.

We will have ghost towns because the billionaires are getting the money not the small business owners. And our grandchildren will pay for it.

And it's their parents who are running the show, spending the money, and doing the borrowing, so the grandchildren will know who to blame!

Are these the same grandchildren that are now destroying Mom and Pop small businesses and knocking down statues?

I'm cool with money going to the small business owners who have been hurt during this ordeal because of government ordered shutdowns. I feel bad for the business owners stuck in states that are clearly not business friendly. They need to go to the polls and demand better representation for themselves.

What I do not want to see is money being poured into the states that allowed rioting and looting to go on and on and on for days without doing anything about it. No, you do not allow destruction like that to take place and then ask the Federal Government to give you money to "rebuild". Forget that.
