Those sound like highly contradictory comments. If XO is in good shape to weather the storm, it begs they question, why are they requesting a bailout with government strings attached?

fair point, but honestly no one knows exactly how long this downturn will take. All I know is that we’ve applied for it should we need it.

Its a very cheap insurance policy even if a company is financially stable. Nobody knows where this ends up, so take what you can get and pay it back if you ended up not needing it.

Everybody's a socialist in a downturn.

How very true ;-)

Speak for yourself.

Socialism light got us INTO this mess (discarding the Constitution and personal responsibility in favor of lockdowns "for the common good") and only unfettered capitalism, entrepreneurship, and liberty will get us OUT of it.

Creative destruction is a necessary part of a healthy economy. The CARES Act is an abomination.

Capitalism is fantastic until about every 10 years or so, socialism has to bail it out

very very true

Sad but true

No kidding. A true capitalist would have applauded those that had the foresight to see this unfold and buy up all the hand sanitizer, toilet paper, wipes, and mask to sell them at 4-5 times their value. [emoji14]

If we were to swing all the way either way, this great experiment of a country would fall apart crazy fast. We need the balance of everyone being a little ****ed off because they only got part of what they wanted. I pray neither side gets all their dreams to come true- what a nightmare that would be.
