  • Bail everything and everyone out

    Airlines, public transportation, hotels, restaurants, theatres, cruise lines, casinos and the stock market*, and every single person.

    Everyone wants a bailout. Time to print more trillions, those dollars don't come out of nowhe-

    There even talking about the government directly buying equities. I mean, it's not enough that wallstreet banks and firms get bailouts and free money at zero interest, now they have a direct government backstop. I used to read about this stuff on some "gloom and doom" gold and silver stacker, "prepper" sites, which was outrageous and unheard of at the time, and here we are.

      Every other politician is ideological on economic policy. From the start they limit their options and guarantee that they'll make half of the country unhappy.

      Trump is not ideological ('not a Real Conservative'), which means he has immense flexibility. He has gotten tax cuts for corporations, a massive trade war with yuge tariffs and subsidies, while being able to propose UBI and nationalisation of companies. He has so many options.

        Hedge funds are now Too Big to Fail.

            The title and first post describes what stated government intention is, and then subsequently how official government policy is turning in real time in that direction. While Congress is still squabbling, they're moving towards what Trump wants which is a) bailing everyone out, and b) a whole hosts of businesses out.

            Maybe you conservatives don't want to talk about it because it'll increase government spending by trillions, and that's inconvenient for partisan squabbling reasons. But it's not trolling to describe correctly what is currently going on just because you don't like what is happening.

              You are ranting and trolling and starting several of these types of threads. You are even dropping back into your idiotic third person russian nonsense. Stop it.

                US banks now have infinite lending capacity. Outrageous and unheard of, and here we are.
