Re: $1T stimulus
WSU is which U? How far will $3000 dollars go?
The owls may indeed not be what they seem but still serve an imperative function: they remind us to look into the darkness.

She is going to WSU and Graduated in 3 years. Going on to get her masters degree. She has been a straight A student since High School. She was always showing me her report cards At the end of her junior year in high school I asked her if she could maintain a straight A in her senior year. She said that was a piece of cake. Told her I would have a present for her if she did.
She laughs and said what a $20 dollar bill. I said yes, add a couple of zeros to the end. When she Graduated I gave her a check for $3000 dollars. That's for her college education.
I guess Her masters is not in mathematics. A $20 bill with a couple zeros is 2,000. She must have gone for politics. Suggest $20.00 and grab $3,000.
I spend entirely too many hours a day tying my shoes

Wichita state University. She has a mommy and daddy that make big bucks. They pay the main amount. What I gave her is just for desert.

Hope she enjoys the desert; gets hot there.....I guess.
I however would buy a lot of dessert were I of an age that would permit me to enjoy it.

The National Bureau of Economic Research said Monday that the COVID-19 crisis has officially launched the U.S. economy into a recession, The NBER’s business cycle dating committee calls recessions based on broad checks on employment and production activity.
Since the first cases of Coronavirus took form in the United States, over 42 million Americans have lost their jobs and turned to unemployment benefits. Stay-at-home measures and businesses closures have halted economic activity on an unprecedented scale.
The NBER said official data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics confirmed that the labor market peaked in February. On production, GDP figures have yet to be published for the quarter covering the brunt of the pandemic. But the NBER said monthly readings on real personal consumption measures appeared to confirm that the U.S. consumer - a key driver of the economy - also peaked in February.
