Money junkies just got another fix. Money for nothing and your pedo kicks for free.

Look at all the alleged "fiscal conservatives" criticizing Massie... LoL at the nutjob, big-spending neo-cons masquerading as fiscal conservatives. Thomas Massie actually is a fiscal conservative and proves it by his responsible actions in the HOR. We need MORE Massies in the US Congress. Why didn't those big spenders want a recorded vote? LoL Thomas Massie, many Americans agree with your attempt to stall this atrocious pork-filled bill so it could be properly amended.

 

None of this dog-and-pony (circus) show of quarantines will work and only have further burdened future generations. We weathered the 1957 pandemic without this wasteful crap and would have weathered this one as well. Granted, 1,000,000 peope might die, but we do have a population of over 330,000,000. Tragic, but certainly sustainable and a far more rational response than shuttering businesses and then extorting more trillions of dollars from taxpayers.... now, that IS more insanity from the so-called "fiscal conservatives" who are actually big-spending neo-cons. Throw  the big-spending neo-cons out of the Republican party!

but I forgot the consensus on the question ,so  I will ask it of you all.... Say the FED goes under, ideally a gold backed dollar would be best , however it may be that we end up going to a new "greenback" style that the treasurey controls. (debt free currency) but not tied to gold. (per the constitution) so... THE question is would that be A) better than the FED, or  B ) worse

Massie is right, of course, but McConnell and Trump don't have nearly the backbone of a principled congressman like Massie or Amash. I'll give Trump some credit for attempting to strip some of the more egregious pork in this bill, but this bill still must be loaded with unconstitutional crap. President Trump should have used his pulpit more to strip even more of the crap, but he didn't. Three cheers for Massie's attempt to kill this atrocious legislation. Remember the 1957 pandemic? Isn't it amazing that most of us alive at the time survived alright even without the excessive wasteful spending and smaller population. We need to rid the Republican party of unprincipled spenders actually..

AND WE'RE HEADING QUICKLY TOWARDS FACISM.
