MHB has done a hell of a job. I too never thought this would be on Main Street. But now for the reality and what needs to happen.
A stand alone bill that just addresses this problem will pass though Congress unopposed and be signed into law in days.
But let’s be honest, THATS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. This will be cobbled together with “Fight for $15” or extended unemployment benefits or built as a PAY GO and include a taxe increase for “Budget Reasons”. Anyone of those reasons will be a poison pill. It will come down to “HOW BIG” will that Poison Pill be and if one side can use it as a club against the other side.
One needs to look, learn, and study history to understand how this works and what needs/should/will happen.
In 2021, people’s memories are short. Look at this conversation on this platform and compare it to ANY NEWS FEED.
THIS NEEDS TO HAPPEN, MUST BE A STAND ALONE BILL!
Sadly, I won’t hold my breath.
