As someone who's no fan of the GOP, I have to say that Democrats aren't exactly innocent here.
The new financial relief bill is stalled largely due to Republicans wanting to reduce the outrageous $600 bonus per week to unemployment (not even remove it, just reduce it to a still way-fucking-better-than-2008-unemployment boost of +$200) and Democrats are fighting to keep it at $600.

At this point, if Dems are unwilling to bend on the fucking unemployment giveway that means people are making $20-$25 per hour sitting at home from jobs that paid half of that, then both sides should split the bill into separate bills. Get the shit like eviction mortatoriums that are about to be a crisis and have bipartisan support passed in a lesser bill.
I know, I know. Congress critters love giagantic fucking spending bills so they can stuff it full of pork w/o anyone noticing. But maybe this time they should just take one for the team?
