you're an idiot if you believe that anything that is not direct checks is 'pork', lol. your math is off by approximately 99.9%.

the bill contains unemployment assistance, housing aid, nutrition assistance, support for small businesses, aid to states and municipalities, medicaid subsidies, tax credits to workers and families... this is NOT a republican proposal like trump's tax cuts and his stimulus package, where just crumbs go to average joe, and the overwhelming part goes to donors and millionaires.

you need to stop listening to fox news and actually read the bill. don't be so ignorant.

99.9% WHAT? You are a moron to think 1.9 trillion where > 77% goes to institutions with failed track records is a good thing. This will burden the people its meant to help and the whole nation for years after. The rhetoric that the 'average joe' can't manage their finance is laughable, and you should GTFO with that. Heard enough of that line with the GME pump from Faux news. There is nothing wrong with unemployment assistance, housing aid, nutrition assistance, etc within the bill. It just constitutes the majority of the bill right now. The 'average joe' is left with pennies on the dollar like during round 2 stimulus. The 'peoples party' ROFL.

Also, if you want to pay for my cable, then I can watch Fox news :) Just get clips right now on you tubes. Tucker show is pretty funny

the prior bill had all these too. a lot of loan student payments and interest were suspended as well. just the media was crying about PPP loans as a sign of “corporate influence” then. the $1.1T+ in pork barrel spending on foolish bureaucratic procedures and special interests is fine now because the crime bill writer is going to sign it

its odd that they limited the scope down even further of who gets $1400 out of the promised $2000 checks along even more arbitrary lines. if your last tax return you made $80k but you’ve been laid off since you dont get squat

Santara: tenderloin is the best cut of beef.

Fenderp: then how come so many people eat hamburgers?

Santara: dude, stfu.

Fenderp: u r so triggered.


*whhhooooosh*

here's the crayon version for my slow american friend: i'm saying that some hipsters' list of obscure fruit punches is hardly representative of what someone would typically call american beer.

i'm absolutely convinced that the guys who made that list really enjoyed their drink, and probably told everyone they met in their lives how much they are into craft beer from local microbreweries - and ofc you're free to assume that american beer therefore just has to be the best, even though you probably never had a single one of those on that list. all i'm saying is that this is not what people associate with american beer, or americans' taste in beer for that matter.

bland and stale light 'beer', real pisswater, is what most of you consume - and that's totally fine with me, to each their own. all i'm saying is don't delude yourself too much just because you found a list that rated a specific batch from a local festival in bumfuck ohio back in 2012 super highly, lol...

I am nothing close to being your friend. Imperial stouts are not "fruit punch." I have a half dozen of #23, and I've had #18, #34, & #49. Only 1 is local (49). There are 7 or 8 Belgian beers on the list, as well as 5 Swedish one, and a Polish, among others. No German beers though.

I have had plenty of German beer, both within Germany and export. It was well-made and the quality was high. The variety of style, however, was lacking. That's what Germans like, however, so its hard to blame them.

"Traditional" American lagers are of roughly equivalent strength to what you find in Germany. IPAs are significantly stronger.

American craft beer is a sizeable section of the market; anyone who refers to craft beer as "fruit punch" doesn't know enough to participate in even a limited conversation on the subject. You are a living, breathing German stereotype.

google 'reinheitsgebot', you absolute beer ignoramus, then you know why there's no german beer amongst your hipster fruit punches, lol.

and again, you're missing the point, my slow american friend: the recent craft beer fad doesn't really change what kind of beer most americans prefer and consume. i think it's great that a few of you have started to develop a sense of taste, and appreciate drinks that don't resemble something that already went through your digestive system once - but that still doesn't make it representative of american beer, sorry.

that's like 2007 me claiming that german basketball has eclipsed american basketball, because of dirk nowitzki, or 2020 me claiming that german ice hockey (had to do it, to piss off our resident canadians) is the best in the world because of leon draisaitl, lol...

I am still not anything close to your friend. You're still conflating consumption choices based on price with quality comparisons. Try to keep up.
