 Biden’s ‘Rescue Plan’ Will Sic the IRS on Anyone Who Earns $600 in the Gig Economy:

 

What does this have to do with the pandemic?

 

Nothing.

Uber drivers, Etsy sellers, and others who earn income through the gig economy could get a nasty surprise from the $1.9 trillion emergency spending bill signed by President Joe Biden on Thursday.

 

Buried inside the 600-page bill that's ostensibly meant to provide pandemic relief is a provision requiring gig economy platforms to report information to the IRS about all users who earn at least $600 in a year. Previously, platforms were only required to provide the IRS with information on users who made at least 200 transactions or earned at least $2,000.

 

The tightening of the reporting requirements means a lot more paperwork and tax compliance requirements for platforms. It also means more tax headaches for anyone who might use those platforms to earn a little extra cash.

OOPS, looks like the Left "misinterpreted" things again.

 

 

Salazar had proposed to extend the repayment time for Covid-19 related EIDL loans by one year.

The SBA just announced they would do exactly that as a matter of policy. It was an administrative change, not a legislative one.

It's sad she had to clarify her Tweet by deliberately conflating the two to make it appear she supported the widely popular relief bill but in reality she is referring to a nothing burger.

Fauci warns of another COVID-19 surge, urges Trump to tell supporters to be vaccinated

 

 

Asked by Wallace what could be done to combat vaccine skepticism in the U.S., particularly among Republicans, Fauci urged Trump to tell his supporters to get vaccinated.

 

"It would be very helpful for the effort for that to happen. I’m very surprised by the number of Republicans who say they won’t get vaccinated," he said.

 

"I think it would make all the difference in the world" if Trump were to express support for vaccines, Fauci said. "He’s a widely popular person among Republicans."

"I just don’t get it, Chris, why they don’t want to get vaccinated," he added.

 

During a separate appearance on NBC's "Meet the Press," Fauci said it's "disturbing" that Trump voters are choosing to not get vaccinated.

 

"We've got to dissociate political persuasion from commonsense, no-brainer public health things," he said.

 

"[Vaccines have] rescued us from smallpox, from polio, from measles," he added. "What is the problem here?"

The problem is that there is an assumption being made by China's top stooge in the deep........I'm sorry the top epidemiologist in DC that Republicans need to get vaccinated, immediately makes an already ugly politicized disaster that this is even worse, by being even more f....ing divisive

 

He's garbage.  A total POS.

 

The response to China's top media stooge in America's absolutely ridiculous question (as we approach 100 million shots) about Trump voters and vaccines, after all that we've let happen and endured is a truly---how freaking dare that clown btw---its another pathetic example...another one....of what a sham this.  

 

He has no business asking that and this fraud's response should have been "this isn't political you **s hole the American people are doing a truly great job and we're almost at the end until I (because he's president of the world) move the goal posts again."

 

Thank you.

What assumption are you talking about?

 

It is a fact that Republicans, particularly white men, are the most skeptical of this vaccine.  People often follow leaders.  Trump is THE leader for that subset of the population.  Had he endorsed getting vaccinated loudly, and demonstrated such by getting the shot on camera like all the other past presidents did, I'm sure there would be less reluctance from that group of people.  But that is one of Trumps largest flaws.  He is not a leader.  

 

For all your incessant whining about wanting to get back to normal,  it is hypocritical to object to the quickest way to do so.

Skeptical of the vaccine?  

 

It's not mandatory.

 

It's an experiment.

 

Getting back to normal never required this and it shouldn't.  

 

 

Speaking of leadership.  Since the 500th goal posts move by Fauci on herd immunity on Christmas when he said previously 65% then changed it to 80 or 90%.......he's lost all credibility....a long time ago

 

Yea he can go f off and show us the data on party affiliation getting vaccinated.

 

The only "party" that matters is 65 and older and at risk

 

Healthy 30 year olds need the vaccine?  That what we're saying now?  Who cares what they do especially since this is an experiment

 

 

 

Any update on how Marvelous Marvin Haglar died yet?

How did you come to the conclusion that white male Rs are skeptical (I’m assuming by that we mean “won’t get it”)?  
 

I’ve read quite a few reports that cynicism regarding vaccines runs quite high in the black community in general.  
 

I’ve become highly skeptical of the information that Das Fauci shares, and know many people of various political ideology that are cautious of the vaccine due to the speed it was developed.  However, the general consensus in my admittedly small circle is that they will get vaccinated.  
 

Holla.

Glad Biden is doing what he can to move us forward despite the stupidity in this country highlighted by that dude in this thread.

Damn shame about Marvelous Marvin.  I don’t know anything about the cause of his death but that dude was a warrior.

You can either trust his wife who said he died of natural causes or the vaccine conspiracists who blame the vaccine they're unsure he even took. Looks like Blitz, of course, went with the latter.

I repeat, I don’t know anything about the cause of his death. 
 

I was commenting on his prowess as a fighter.  That is all. 
 

...though on the trust issue, my neighbor had a long bout with rectal cancer, recovered and was doing well. A year or so ago she started having severe intestinal issues, uncontrollable diarrhea, pain etc.  She was told the problem was caused by scar tissue and problems with radiation and chemo.

 

She fought bravely, deteriorated and ended up in hospice.  3 days before she died, she tested positive for COVID.  
 

One wonders what her death certificate says.  I have no qualms with people questioning the narrative.
