Corporations need to pull themselves up by their bootstraps. Bailout the workers, not the companies.

Not one penny to the companies. send checks each month to the workers only.

They're coming for our money people. A dark part of me says the rich need a beat down. Tumbrels and the French razor.

And, help for corporations must be aimed toward helping workers and people.

Problem is, most of us don’t have faith in this admin to handling it best.
