Unemployment

A bill is being introduced to extend unemployment benefits and it will be paid for by calling it a national emergency and the cost will be added to the deficit. That is a great idea. Now why not add to that the millions who are homeless and all those who don’t have enough to eat. I have a plan to pay for these new programs. Just ask the big banks to pay. The government has given them two trillion (with a T) over the past four years and they are just sitting on it as excess reserves. Here is their chance to be good citizens.
