So Sam's and COSTCO are waiving their membership fees, right?

No? Gee didn't Donnie Dipshit bring this up when he talked to their CEOs?

Since the banks can now borrow at zero interest, how soon can I expect them to lower my credit card interest rate? What? You mean they won't do that?

When I eventually bailout the airlines, cruise and hotel industry (and you and I will), where can I go to get my free flight, cruise and lodging?

Should we assume that all those companies that Donnie Shit for Brains "name checked" support him? He sure made it sound like they did. That's good to know.

Finally, did those CEOs express any regret for the record buyback of their stock? I thought for sure that we were told the tax cuts and regulations destruction would lead to things like paid leave and raises for their employees.

I'm wondering when the "owners" of this country might realize that competent leadership might... just might be more valuable to them then a taxcut?

There really needs to be a "come to Jesus" vote this November. No Retrumplican, even those in the most backwards, racist, godforsaken Dumbfuckistan Murika shithole should feel safe.

The Retrumplican Party MUST BE DESTROYED!

The COSTCO membership fees are built into their prices.

And rates for two variable interest loans I have did go down when the Fed cut rates a few weeks ago. Unfortunately, so did the rates on Money Market and variable CDs.

Doesn't extend to opening their stores to all in this time of need.

I guess the invisible hand of the free market man only applies to average Americans.

You and I get hammered because of a disaster and we're not even given bootstraps. We open a business and it goes south, well, that's just too bad.

CEOs and the wealthy help install an imbecile as the leader of our country, but that's ok, when he fucks it all up, we'll give them cheap money and bail them out.

Must be nice to know that no matter what...no matter how stupid or ignorant they are... there will be no consequences.
