This bill is what Democrat control looks like. At $1.9 trillion, this bill spends an average of $6,000 per American citizen. What would you say to somebody claiming to be a friend, who forced you to take out a loan for $6,000 because he might give you $1,400 from a portion of those loan proceeds? Would you consider that a good deal? What if the same friend had already forced you to take out loans totaling $85,000 and you had little to nothing to show for it? That is the average citizen's share of the national debt. This bill takes aggregate so-called COVID relief spending to $6 trillion to alleviate an estimated $300 billion in lost wages. This is 20 times the spending compared to the lost wages. What is next? This is not even the beginning of the end of the Democrats' insatiable desire to spend their citizens into financial ruin. Only 9 percent of the $1.9 trillion is even related to COVID relief, while 91 percent is for pet Democrat projects.

The bill gives $500 billion in bailouts to failed, poorly run blue State governments that have only lost an estimated $7.6 billion in revenue.
