National Survival Plan: Full Jobless Benefits for Duration of Lockdown, Paid by Temporary Wealth Tax

[B. Kidd]

Re-instating the draft will provide jobs and food for our youth, along with injecting some cement in their spines!

As well as exposing multiple more individuals to the coronavirus...ahh..jeez, even I couldn't finish the line without breaking down.
"Are you dumb?..or just stupid?".

Not now, but in time. Don't knee-jerk so fast!

 

[B. Kidd]

War be coming with China sooner or later.

Declare war sooner!

Too what end?

China's.
China got your heart?

Hold up. So this guy Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel says on MSNBC that "a lock-down must go on for the next 18 months or more?" And the Fed says possible 32% unemployment? This is national suicide. If true, a bold program needs to be put in place that guarantees enhanced unemployment benefits, amounting to close to full paycheck, so that people are not locked inside slowly starving. But such a program is a budget buster unless revenue-producing measures are in place. The last thing we need is for the dollar to come crashing down and hyperinflation from all the new added debt.

A wealth tax could be implemented temporarily in these extraordinary times, to pay for this.

.....

Food pantries are emptying, unable to keep up with need. Now grocery supply chain workers are balking at risking their lives for low wages. No grocery chain workers, no food. We are looking at disaster full in the face. And that face is ugly.

Desperation-related crime is already rising, and we are only one month into the total lock-down. Police in some cities, like St. Paul, have openly stated they are not responding to theft or some other property crimes. We are seeing the tip of law and order breaking down.

Solution, Cliff notes of the main elements:

• Long-Term Jobless Benefits at 100% Paycheck

  - First, slam the brakes on long-term economic uncertainty and anxiety. If Dr. Emanuel says this lock-down must go on for 18 months, then workers must know that their unemployment benefits, at 100% of paycheck or close to it, will go on for the duration of the national emergency, until the day it is lifted. The $2 trillion CARES (Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security) Act, signed by President Trump in March 2020, uses a different formula, adding $600 per week to normal unemployment benefits paid by the states' average weekly unemployment check to $985. This exceeds the median weekly earnings of $936 in the fourth quarter of 2019.

• Essential Workers Can Enroll in Medicare - Offer workers who are deemed "essential services" workers the immediate opportunity to enroll in Medicare, regardless of their age. These are sanitation workers, grocery chain workers, food processing plant, hardware store, etc. whom the government has already ascertained are essential to keeping society running. They have earned this. They cannot get sick and then get thrown under the bus.

• Keep the Food banks Open - Establish a $100 million dollar fund and staff to keep US food banks stocked and running, for anyone who meets the qualifications.

• Pay for with Temporary Tax on Extreme Wealth - These budget-busting initiatives without revenue offsets would endanger the US dollar and threaten the economy with yet another nightmare: the collapse of the currency and runaway hyperinflation. The solution is to impose a temporary tax on extreme wealth. It has been estimated that a 2 percent tax on individuals with more than $50 million in assets and 3 percent on those with more than $1 billion would raise somewhat under $300 billion dollars per year. This would easily cover the cost of a full year's 100% paycheck unemployment benefits.

I have just a couple questions, you know, for clarification.

First one is we just spent 2 trillion on the last deal that will only last a couple months. So basically if we took 100% of the “rich people’s” money we are have already spent more than they have to take. We’re already in a hole.

Second is if we are paying everyone close to their take home pay in welfare who the fuck is going to be working for these rich people so they can make more money for us to steal?

Open the fucking economy.

NOW.

If the rulers won't, the people will make them, VERY soon.

Remember, while 29 million Americans are without jobs or a way to survive, NOT ONE GOVERNMENT WORKER HAS OR WILL MISS A SINGLE PAYCHECK.

The government doesn't give a fuck how long they lock down the economy; why should they? They don't pay the price, commoners do.

[Uncensored2008]

You know, with Trump bragging about the bill he got passed through that gives employers and small business owners loans that can be forgiven if they keep their employees and continue to keep them on the payroll.

If Trump's plan is so great and going to help so many, then why are the unemployment numbers so high? Trump told them to not lay off their workers as he said there would be money to keep them afloat temporarily.

Oh wait..................that's right.......................the banks STILL aren't ready or able to comply with it yet, and the funds aren't being distributed.

The dems slammed the breaks on loans to small biz...they had e m rollin out

Ya know the party of the working man

Working class America needs DESPERATELY to understand something about the democrat party; THEY FUCKING HATE YOU. To democrats, working class people are "deplorable." democrats support illegal aliens and government union members. The democrats piss in the face of working America.

Maybe if that bitch Nazi Pelosi hadn't held up the bill they'd have the money by now.

If that smart woman, Nancy Pelosi hadn't stuck to her guns, people would be getting NOTHING. It would have all gone to the corporations, with no oversight.

People ARE getting nothing. democrats took a shit in the soup. Instead of helping Americans keep their jobs by assisting small businesses, that evil twat pelosi and her Communist party saw an opportunity to rob the public treasury on behalf of illegal aliens and government union members.

How much would that be?
Give me your best estimate...…..

a 2 percent tax on individuals with more than $50 million in assets and 3 percent on those with more than $1 billion would raise somewhat under $300 billion dollars per year. This would easily cover the cost of a full year's 100% paycheck unemployment benefits.

Wow!
So incredibly not even in the ballpark.

About 150 million workers, before this disaster.
$300 billion per year is about $2000 per worker.
For the entire year.

Total state and federal unemployment benefits paid out in a normal say 4% unemployment year is rounding up say $35 billion a year. The Cost of Unemployment to the Economy

That's 60% paycheck call it $50 billion to get closer to full paycheck. If we multiply that by 7 times that number of claims, approaching 30% unemployment, gives you $350 billion paid out benefits per year. If 40 million people are unemployed that works out to $9000 a person. Not median income.

Doing it another way, at 4% unemployment that is about 5 million people out of work. Divide $35 billion by 5 million and you get around $7,000 per year for an average unemployment claim. That does seem a little low, any idea why the discrepancy?

 

[toobfreak]

18 months ...what is he retarded ?

Lol

They'll be rioting in 3......1 if the food trucks stop

Even less if the liquor stores close or run out of money.

My governor closed our liquor stores a month ago, out of an "abundance of caution." Too risky to take limited orders over the phone, pay by CC only and hand the orders out the door in PPE.
