    The US Senate passed an $838 billion USD stimulus package, but for some reason I don't feel stimulated. Do you?;)

    Yes.

    Why, do you not? Maybe you need to change the batteries?

    I don't feel stimulated either but that's probably because they didn't stimulate Ireland*

    *note my scathing and insightful analysis.

    No.

    Hang on, wait....

    ...... nope, false alarm. Still broke.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    I still maintain that family planning funding has no place in a stimulus package.

    There is a load of rubbish in there.

    Maybe I'll bailout the ones I have for new ones?

    Not stimulated by such a large stimulus package? Tsk...I bet you'd be complaining if there were a laissez faire policy too.

    No pleasing some people-complain if too hands on, complain if too hands off.:pac:
