I've seen a some whining in the media over the last four weeks about the state having pumped too much money into the economy during COVID, and they try very hard to conflate the pittance normal people got, and the absurd money business owners got
I checked local firms and some amounts seemed reasonable: $5K, $10K, etc. But others were clearly a disgrace. A Coca-Cola bottling plant got $850K. And that plant is very small for a bottling plant.
I wonder how much Coke got in total from the government. And where did it all go? Did it go right into the execs pockets? Did the government do any auditing at all for huge companies?
Lol the small company I work at got just over $150k. We didn't ever shut down, or even have any slower business or anything. The loan was forgiven of course though
I looked it up and my old elementary school teacher got $600,000+!!! Her husband and her do own a farm but its not even that large of a portion of the farmland ownership around here. It wasn't even like they stopped having their business running either. My parents worked throughout the pandemic without stop!

Thanks for the link.
