What?? This is just not an accurate statement. The bill is not even through Congress! That is when it will go much more public in the news. Nobody is gonna care that much about it outside of Rose Twitter when the vast majority of Americans get their money and when the provisions of the bill go into effect. Nor will it be the last bill.

 

Meanwhile:

Socialists. After that it becomes more split between socialists who actually want to improve the country and socialists who just want everything to be destroyed because they are rich and it won't affect them/they hate America/they are grifters.

And furthermore, this bill hasn't even passed a new Congress under a POTUS who hasn't taken office. It is far too soon to assume a bunch of angry socialists on Twitter = "this is the legacy of this bill that has not yet passed". There will be a media blitz over it soon enough.

I am on twitter- I only follow limited site/people but the only one I saw who mentioned it was Rubio who I rolled my eyes at(Someone retweeted it with an eyeroll). Which is why I made my comment.  I was off today and and was finishing up some painting - listening to NPR and CNN and I didn;t hear a thing about this outside of discussions more about the items directly related to COVID. Nothing about that outside of the bullet points of the plan.

Frankly, I learned awhile back it was going to be $1400 rather than 2K, so I don't understand why people are acting confused and upset now.  Maybe they heard only what they wanted to hear?

    • I believe Henry Slesar intended that the Paige/Nola plot would play out over three to six months and Paige would be the new younger ingenue; but a few things happened. Sharon Gabet didn't renew her contract and the audience didn't like the Paige/Brian romance as it flirted with incest. Kim Hunter revealed in an interview that she as slated for 3 months but Henry asked her to stay on for an additional period
    • Bill and the performer are the strongest male character and actor on this show.  Yeah, how I see it too. you pair your best young female with one of the weakest screams sabotage to me. 
    • Nordstrom's page for above AFRM Shailine dress that Chelsea wore, pink petal pattern/color https://www.nordstrom.com/s/shailene-print-long-sleeve-powermesh-midi-dress/8127521?origin=category-personalizedsort&color=683 Notice on that page there is a video, and the video shows a different color which is the color worn by Audra on Y&R in April 2025. Same exact dress, just different color pattern - organic rose. https://wornontv.net/509377/
    • I sometimes wonder if he’s even breathing.
    • I hit the Google Machine, and can't find Alex Alegria's (Tomas) age anywhere. Wow, I really disagree with this. I like that Bill plays against the typical bad guy. I think Maurice Johnson has been just fine -- except for that swaying. I cannot believe someone -- anyone -- on that set didn't give him a note. He should have been called out on that in week one. The swaying and swiveling never stops unless he sits down. I understand the need for product placement and the reason for it. However, it does feel wrong during emotional scenes. Yes, we're talking about the products, but it takes us out of those emotional moments, and GATES shouldn't be happy about that. They need to do better. Maxim said it better than I did. I agree. The writers have absolutely failed Ashley and Derek. I've abused both of them here, but I do place more of the blame on the writing. Compare what A & D have been given with the dialogue Ambyr Michelle is getting as Eva. We're not even in the same universe. Ambyr is getting writing that plays to her (many) strengths. She takes good dialogue and knocks it out of the park. Ashley and Derek are given garbage to play and garbage to say.  
    • The Eva / Tomas scenes at the end -- to see a good actress having to play a scene with someone giving her less than nothing -- that was painful.
    • I thought the story had it’s moments, I much preferred the story once Greg was meddling, trying to keep her away from Tom Ryan. I loved them together!   And there was a story they could have developed from this. Laura stopped having a lot of scenes with the ensemble. She's the only one missing during the big finales of seasons 5&6, and I would have been cool to play on that! For one, Laura being a more cutthroat business executive just made sense to me. Also, the point I was trying to make regarding Mary Robeson was that I wish they had focused on a story from her family /background beforehand. You could play the Vin artist from many angles.
    • Nielsen Ratings for this same week 39 years ago May 5-11 1986. North & South Book II mini-series pre-empted a number of ABC shows. What the heck was NBC’s Fast Copy about?
