1. Gee, that sounds like good news for a country starved of it

Shouldn't this be the front page lead story in the papers and the top of the broadcast on the evening news?

2. If a Republican had done it

We would have never heard the end of it 24/7.......Privilege of Media being mostly owned by wealthy Republicans.....

4. A republican would never do it.

Only the wealthy are deserving of tax breaks in republicans' world.

8. Only the wealthy are deserving of ANY breaks in GOP world, from what I can see.

It's all about being deserving. They see being poor as evidence that one must be a lazy slacker, which in turn means you don't deserve any help.

To put it another way, the only people who need help don't deserve it. After all, if they were industrious and hard working, they wouldn't be poor, and they wouldn't need help, don't you see?

It's all very convoluted logic and completely ignores the possibility that sometimes things happen to people that are NOT their "fault." I suppose it's all very comforting to those whose minds happen to work a certain way, but it makes me want to tear my hair out.

10. Very Ayan Rand(ish)

3. I did hear about this on MSNBC recently, but this rare good news is being drowned out

By Covid and TFG news.

9. Yup it should!

5. IT'S BETTER TO GIVE THAN TO RECEIVE...

Says a book that nothing beats that Trump's never read. Like he'd know?

[Xipe Totec]

6. Render onto God that which is God's

And by render, I mean fry the fat out of those slabs of lard that call themselves "job creators".

[calimary]

7. Indeed.

11. I get very tired of seeing pictures of someone with a mask under their nose.

Wear the fucking mask over your nose. Or don't even bother to put one on.

I see such photos constantly. Everywhere. On the internet. In the newspapers. I really wish every such picture would have a caption pointing out the person isn't wearing it correctly.


I know, I know, that's not the point of the OP. But still, it makes me crazy.
