I would say that to all "American" businesses that have shell offices elsewhere, or use all the tax loopholes to avoid taxes (of course, please close those loopholes, USA).

CNBC earlier this morning in an interview with Labor Secretary Gene Scalia... (paraphrased)

CNBC: The media seems to be discussing all the problems with the rollout of the program, are there problems?

LaborSec: It's a great program, everything of this scale is going to have issues, but the amount of loans being approved really show how quickly we're getting money into the hands of small businesses.

CNBC: With the banks being the gate keepers, are there bad actors who are holding things up?

LaborSec: I can't comment on if there are individual banks being 'bad actors,' but we've gotten billions into the hands of small businesses in a short amount of time.

CNBC: Thanks LaborSec. After this break, we're going to talk to a small business owner who had to lay his entire staff off because his bank doesn't know how to distribute the federal funds.


Wooooooowwww. The shade thrown on SquawkBox.

Trump just said yesterday at his press conference that there are no issues. CNBC is fake news.

My buddy's banker openly tried to talk him out of applying saying his bank would not approve most loans. (Specifically in this case the PPP) Then an hour later his banker called again and said that the bank was no longer participating. (I was at his office all day I watched the whole thing unfold) Thankfully one of his businesses is a franchise and corporate has a banker they recommend and he will still get what he needs most likely but there is no way to spin this in a positive way. (though it is high comedy watching Trump and Mnuchin try)

So, Dump has delivered a botched public health emergency and a self-induced recession. Any way he can get us a disastrous military commitment for the Woodrow Wilson Hat Trick?

Democrat public health emergency and Democrat-induced recession. Dems will lead him into war, too. ;)
 
Re: Business, Economic, and Tax Policy 9: No, No, No, We Compost The Rich

If this is a Depression ultimately instead of just a recession we are all ****ed. And the way this is being handled is going to result in exactly that.

Rant...a company I used to work for laid off 21% of their staff (roughly 3,000 people) during the 08-09 downturn. I just found out today that they laid off 25% of staff in the past week. Capitalism is a cancer. They have over a billion dollars salted away and one of their vaunted executives bankrolled a sports team we all know. Largest principle investor at 250 million. It’s more important to keep stock prices up than to treat employees as if they are human beings with families.

I wish there would be blowback for moves like this but there won’t be.
End of rant.
