    We've been waiting since March, but now they're turning down extra money because it might take too long. Ok sure.

    My pipes burst 3 weeks ago, so now I need an emergency plumber, immediately. I don't have time to worry about who it is or what it costs, not when I have weeks and weeks of stagnant water ruining all of my belongings.

      Yeah that's some real strong bullshit right there. Only a handful of Dems were even talking about getting people more money. The rest of the Dem ghouls were fucking happy to sit back and let Republicans set the tone in negotiations. They went along with Republican concern trolling about the national deficit. There's no fucking way the Dems were making concessions, they were more than glad to just give people $600. All the language from Dem leadership indicates that they "believe" that $600 is a major accomplishment.
