Anonymous Coward User ID: 63927796 United States 04/08/2020 05:21 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | To shut down an economy and a nation because of a contagion where over 90% who get infected show mild symptoms and most develop an immunity, is an overkill. So why overkill and what is gained? What is gained can be gauged by one example. When a thriving business with a bright future is forced to shut down by government decree then it goes belly up for no action of its own. The bank takes possession of this business and sells it at pennies on the dollar to those who now buy this business when they could not get it any other way. Multiplying this example across the nation translates to trillions of dollars being transferred to that 1% |

Another form of fraud happening here. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77549464 I don't think that it will be that easy to do, but a few may slip through the cranks. It has to be a legitimate business operations. Loans are based on previous tax fillings and other criteria. I worked for the SBA disaster relief department, all application are extensively scrutinized and many loans are reject for various reasons. If for any reason someone is found trying to defraud the government there are penalties, such as fines and imprisonment. . INFJ; We are the protectors. |

Negative. These SBA loans are specifically tied to keeping your workers paid (e.g. payroll) on a basis/term in which they were previously being paid. I've been applying for these loans so my business can stay afloat and keep all my guys on payroll. These "loans" are not being approved. Horse-shit is what it is. “The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles" |

User ID: 78587282 United States 04/08/2020 06:46 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Every bank in this nation keeps tabs of far more loan and deposit accounts than the SBA does. The SBA has been given TENS OF MILLIONS to upgrade their computer systems more than once. Yet, when there is a crisis, and they have been given Trillions of Dollars by Congress - the incompetent bastards cannot manage to process loan and grant applications and get the cash into the hands of the very taxpayers who've paid their salaries for decades. The SBA is, no surprise here, run by two Trump Appointees who have no background in the financial industry and who obviously do not know what the fuck they're doing - par usual for a Trump Appointee. |

User ID: 78576101 United States 04/08/2020 08:27 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | This is why when we "give" business etc "our" money for them to "give" back to "us". It should be done only with preeminent conditions on their behaviors. Like "sure we will bail you out Boeing but you are going to have to honor overtime laws, bump up employee sick leave, cap executive salaries, and lower employer paid portions of benefits for X years. Failure to do so will result in criminal prosecution of your board members at any time these are failed to be upheld... and so on and so on... It is not "quite" the same with these SBA loans but in similar ilk it should be done. Basically WE THE PEOPLE had the bankers by the balls in 08 but we were too scared to realize it. Shoulda put it to them then. I keep praying for all the small business owners and families out there. I am hoping they are learning to do more with less and find some moments of peace in all of this. IF we can get through this, my hope is that it was of some reason... that reason being we are made stronger and wiser because of it. Time will tell. "Be Careful When You Follow The Masses...
