Bail out the People before Big Business
The Covid-19 Pandemic is going to cause our society untold hardship. We will all need help. European governments are putting their people before big business - offering full financial support to everyone, as soon as they need it, for as long as it takes. Our Government should put people first too.
We live in a consumer society. The economy is entirely driven by people having money to spend. If people don't have money to spend, everything stops. Give the people the money today to keep the economy going and it will cheaper than restarting when it's all over.
