U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi delivers a statement on a coronavirus economic aid package ahead of a vote in the House of Representatives on Capitol Hill in Washington, U.S., March 13, 2020.House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Friday called for another bill to expand the provisions in the $2 trillion package Congress passed last week to limit the economic devastation from the coronavirus pandemic.
"It's not enough," Pelosi told CNBC's "Squawk on the Street" about the last relief measure, after the government employment report showed the U.S. economy lost 701,000 jobs in early March as businesses started to close. The California Democrat said she wants more direct payments to individuals, beyond the chunks of up to $1,200 lawmakers previously approved. She pushed for more small business loan funding beyond the $350 billion in the last law, and to extend beefed up unemployment insurance for two more months.
If that astronomic amount of money was invested in innovative companies & talented people who makes such companies & also in educational programs than now you could avoid crisis like this.. But no.. All what the government did was subsided oil industry and spent in wars...
The challenge for Pelosi is, can she take the money away from Obama without him killing her in trying too.

SpeakerPelosi jimcramer TheEconomist thehill So the government is just gonna start printing money, huh? 🤔
SpeakerPelosi please create a group that can come together fast to support your country! You will need this, as the WhiteHouse is stuck! Please continue to do your good work cnn FauciFan we need more leadership BillGates. Please bring leaders to manage each problem area.
Time for the red hot pins again.
Kiss ass
In her defense, due to red tape and non-existent processes, the first bill has done exactly jack shit. By the time anyone sees assistance, we will probably be on our 8th bill.
She’s sucking her teeth again 🤮
imagine being an american and paying taxes after this fiasco? LOL, you'd have to be spineless.
Brrrrrrrrr
Just keep printing...
We need Pelosi in Gitmo.
Let’s hyper inflate the currency Brilliant
And who's gonna pay for all of this?
It's not enough because they didn't get enough of their pork & pet projects in the first one.
The left, middle, and right sure are f*ckin’ this up. It’s like, no one is right and no one is wrong. 🤦♂️
“Not enough” is obv what she told her surgeon about that 1st forehead lift. perpetualshock
The devil !
Of course she does - needs to fund more “junk” I bet we see a performance center in San Fran get 25mm on the next go
Setting up for massive tax increases post a “hopeful” November election.
Nothing is ever enough for communists.
Hmmmmmm
Enough time spent w this crackpot!
Please make her stop talking. 😱🤫
Should there be an age limit on people in critical 'leadership' positions?
The Democrat’s plan to seize their agenda and push their socialist progressive programs when they think America is distracted. They do not care about you, never doubt this just their crazy ass agenda.
That’s great as long as we concentrate right now on saving lives, fixing the water or air or turtles or trees or whatever does not matter if there is no one to drink or breath or view. No crap just common sense until we are through this
She only fought for more pork in the bill, nothing related to actual help for those affected. Words are cheap.
Why all the PORK in the 2.3 trillion dollar bill that was just passed. Whose pockets did that go into?
Not to mention tax cuts for herself and rich buddies (remove SALT reduction). Slamming the middle class with taxes while claiming to be on its side is her tactic....
buffoon
Ms. Pelosi is correct, the 8 weeks is way to short if you have not opened your business yet and have no idea when you can restart. Plus $350 billion is nothing when the majority of small business is in consumer facing.
Wow. She sounds HORRIBLE. She is stuttering her words.. he voice sounds horrible
I’m not a Berner but need to think about healthcare/ health insurance as well
Well Congress controls the purse 🤷🏻♂️
