There should be no bail outs for big businesses! We need to demand this

[tulipsandroses]

These businesses will eventually bounce back. I am not saying they should not get assistance - But it should not be free money. Your local mom and pop restaurant, dry cleaners and other local small businesses will not bounce back. Those are the people that should get a bail out. The big businesses should get loans with lots of strings attached that help their employees. We the people need to demand this of our elected officials.

Just listening to AM Joy where she mentioned that Big businesses may get bailouts, basically free money while small businesses will get loans. That is unacceptable.
They got their bailouts with the Trump tax cuts.

2. The bailouts will be loans. That is what happened with the GM bailout, and how it was structured,

where they also paid interest on those loans. What needs to be insured is that these loans are NOT used to increase executives salaries.
Bonuses should not be allowed, dividends for any company accepting these loans MUST be suspended, and workers must be guaranteed their job.

For local mom and pop establishments, they need to be given assistance to get back on their feet with interest free loans that do not have to be paid back until the economy recovers, and they start making a profit

3. I have no reason to believe the donor class

will not get what they want. Common sense has an uphill climb against the monied interests.

Video games are not essential no matter how they whine and plead.
