Seriously. Guess who else has single-payer and actually has probably the lowest incidence of COVID-19, despite being located 80 miles from China:

How can a province of China be located "80 milesp" from it?

I have a question that I guess I've been too tired to be able to find the answer to,

what is the name of the coronavirus bill and who authored it, who put in the exemption for businesses w/ over 500 employees and all the stupid stipulations about unemployment and sick leave?

I want to know why this bill sucks so bad

Trump is what gave pelosi the excuse to eviscerate the sick leave law. he's too stupid to capitalize on it.

the person whose name is listed as the introducer of the bill is the appropriations chairwoman which means it was written by committee by all the dem leaders. the bill was hammered out entirely in backroom negotiations.

this is the page for the bill on the house web site. as you can see there are no names attached to who neutered the sick leave thing into irrelevance. if you want to find that out you won't be getting it from official sources. generally speaking though if something happens to a bill in backroom negotiations it happens with the blessing of pelosi

The Separatists hated the Republic, the survivors probably came around to the Empire. They were a bunch of aristocrats who resented the Senate, they're basically the Confederates. Palpatine resolved the contradictions the same way Caesar 'resolved' the optimates and populare

Trump made a tweet back in 2017 that ended in "covfefe", which I think was supposed to be "coffee" but his dumb brain can't spell right. And then he didn't delete it, so people made lots of fun over "lol Trump dumb" overnight.

It's in the same category of dumb lib bullshit as "Drumpf", "unpresidented", and congratulating the Kansas City Chiefs.

To be fair he started pretending it was intentional and some kind of code or something, which was loving weird
