Let's talk about helping small businesses* and workers during the pandemic vs bailing out banks in 2008. Which did more damage? And which is being condemned?

Objective analysis demonstrates that COVID stimulus definitely saved business and contract workers (like me for one) who would have otherwise gone under and likely saved our economy while only accounting for about 30% of the total rise in prices.

The stimulus was a VERY good thing with countless proven benefits.
