President Trump seems set on forcing schools into opening and reopening businesses. When that happens, if most of us haven't gotten more help from the federal government by that time, the #housing crash we will experience is going to make 2008 look like an afternoon at the... 1/7
beach.

Tens of millions of people have only a $1200 income total over the last four months. Tens of millions more didn't even get THAT. Some businesses have been forced to close, because a lot of the small business loans went to connected political operatives and churches.

number of #evictions, housing rates will crash, and the billionaires that Congress has been giving "bailout" money to are going to come in and scoop up hundreds of thousands of homes so they can sell them or rent them for a profit.

It is beyond irresponsible of our ... 4/7
Congress to have left so many people with so little help, to this point. And the #HeroesAct that @SpeakerPelosi and @RepThompson are pushing is a HUGE injustice in that it completely fails to prevent tens of millions of Americans from losing their homes.

When that... 5/7
happens, who will be the real criminals? The ones who legally purchased repossessed housing? Or the ones who shut down business nationwide, so that no one could earn their rent for 4 months, and then allowed vulture capitalists to pick their bones? Losing elections is... 6/7
too good for officials who are setting this up to happen!
