I'd like to see it broken out by individuals / small business / corp / state and local -- nm - ty97 Mar 26, 08:17 11
- (The corp amount is absurd regardless) -- nm - ty97 Mar 26, 08:17 10
  - Yeah, in no world could "twice as much for corp" be seen as focused on individuals. -- nm - Spawn Mar 26, 08:19 9
    - corporations are people too! -- nm - decline Mar 26, 08:39 1
      - Can I date one? -- nm - Spawn Mar 26, 08:40
    - Eh. In a world where most individuals work for corporations it does make at least some kind of sense. -- nm - znufrii Mar 26, 08:23 5
      - I've been wondering this week if we know what % of American work for big corps? - ty97 Mar 26, 08:24 4
        
        That's a really good question. -- nm - znufrii Mar 26, 08:25
        
        31.250% -- nm - Spawn Mar 26, 08:25 2
        
        LOFL, I was close. But large businesses only employ about 38 percent of the private sector workforce while small businesses employ 53 percent. -- nm - Spawn Mar 26, 08:25 1
        
        I was thinking this might be the case, which is why small businesses need more money than this bill gives -- nm - ty97 Mar 26, 08:26
    - Dems did get more for individuals though. (but yeah, I get your point) -- nm - ty97 Mar 26, 08:22
