This is what happens when the idiot is allowed to remove oversight!

Think twice! An intelligent person woul say NO!

About time!!! Someone needs to talk to Blackrock and tell them that if a publically traded company recieves a bailout, Blackrock better not be the largest stock holder! Which rocket scientist put Blackrock in charge of this in the first place?

To make way for himself to get an SBA loan rescue

Maybe they should get prosecuted for fraud instead of a slap on the wrist

Hmm, maybe they should get prosecuted for fraud instead of a slap on the wrist..

peterbakernyt maggieNYT jmartNYT nytopinion nytmike adamgoldmanNYT DouthatNYT MZHemingway The nytimes Editorial Board and its opinion writers will now commend POTUS for addressing the problem of federal dollars going to those who don't deserve it. (just kidding)

Why what are they gonna do? Give them the money? Oooh noooo...

Whatever. These companies have a fiscal obligation to their shareholders to take the money if they can. If Congress didn’t want publicly traded companies to get the money, they should have written that into the law. It wouldn’t have been hard.

WARNING. STOP APPLYING FOR THESE LOANS THE PRESS ARE ONTO US.

Privately they don’t give a shit.

I don't like big companies applying for this also but it is not their fault. If you are too stupid to write legislation that goes to the people who need it you get what you deserve. To blame this is disingenuous to say the least but you are to blame not them.

After they already had their share of the huge stimulus scam phew...we need those coronavirus emails released ASAP .

Shouldn't there be built-in protections for actual small businesses in the application process?
