Hey, Dave,
I am a small business. O diversify in several areas, ranching, systems development, personal services and stuff.

My business has shifted to focus on the critters end of it all, the other sectors are dead right now.

Branson just wants OPM to keep him solvent. And, it’s my tax dollars he wants.

Like others said, others will buy his assets and hire his people....

PS, what likely will happen is exactly what expected, socialism bail out subsidy etc. All the same, just different words to make it swallow easier.

I spent $1200 on several addl calves. They will, in several years times, produce value in excess of 10x.

Thanks, to me, my own taxes back, plowed into my business and family.

What’s your n your portfolio?

I’m confident that many businesses will receive no aid, since many business are under the table; far too many taxes and regulations. Cottage or home based business...

Also, I heard the other day that all the small business loans were used up.

Businesses that cannot wait for government _help_ are already closing. I see them closing around town already.

Many of us are fully aware that DC does not use tax money for much of anything; they just create the money from-thin-air...

But those special children of government, large corporations, many of them are named bill. Legal fictions they are. Un-American so many are; globalists.
