So, they're saying march but I'm not sure why they wouldn't just have a vote on this immediately. I don't see the actual down side for Dems.

Passes - Biden just delivered his bipartisan promise.

Fails - Republicans are assholes who hate you maybe we should get rid of that pesky filibuster?

Biden also promised immediate relief via these checks but who actually believes a politician's promises?

Money is just a thing we all pretend exists so that we can keep playing this game that a kindergarten playground bully invented 10,000 year ago. Allowing people to suffer because of a fucking game and make believe bullshit is demonic evil.

Money is a currency used in exchange of your time on Earth. They allow you to buy things that will distract you from your thoughts, your feeling and make you feel wholesome while you cruise through life.

You might find the woman of your dream, have kids. That adds up to the bill . (Not saying it's a bad thing). It's the way we chose to live as a group but life could be more. Just that people want to represent time with $. So because of that, $ = Results. The more $ you have the more results you get. Debts are the worst. Credit cards are the worst. Thin air vs some your time.

Credit cards are awesome.

I get a 5% discount on life thanks to the reward and I pay no interest since I pay it off every month.

No interest for 2 years has let me invest more into my retirement and still pay no interest.

They're a tool. There's a place and time, and if you can't recognize where you'll just break things

Built a 128 core server. Basically my dream scientific computing server and I'm so super excited to do cool stuff with hit.

Problem is I didn't get near enough RAM, since it's expensive as balls and I thought I could get away with 256Gb for now. Turns out I was dead wrong and I need to at least double my RAM, if not go up to a full Tb. So an extra 1400 would be going towards a couple 128 or 256gb ram sticks.

I want a stimulus check even though I'm actually better off financially than I was a year ago.

The main reason I want it is because 50% I'm greedy, and 50% we gave big business fucking trillions of dollars in the first round of stimulus and I'd rather inflate the currency to worthlessness than keep bailing out WalMart.




A business is eligible if it has significant operations in the United States, a majority of its employees based in the United States, and it either has fewer than 10,000 employees or has less than $2.5 billion of revenue. Each loan is a minimum of $1 million, has a four-year maturity, and restrictions on compensation of highly paid employees.[54] The program is limited to $25 billion for passenger air carriers, $4 billion for air cargo carriers, and $17 billion for businesses critical to maintaining national security.

WalMart.
