How else will the $trillions in bailouts, stimulus, and Fed interventions be repaid? I await your response. A good example is the new provision for paying 65% of the COBRA premiums for laid-off employees. The self employed still have to pay their premiums 100%, irrespective of the insolvency of their business, while the insurors are given federal funds to keep premiums arbitrarily high (as COBRA premiums are known to be.) There is also a 98% chance that you won’t be penalized at all.
