  I understand it completely. That's why I think they should add more money to the program and do more of it. The narrative in this article and most of the discussion is that it was a failure and we shouldn't have done it. I disagree. Also follow up on your application now, the program was just funded again. Get the money, keep your payroll up and help your team keep their jobs. That's what it's for, and if you finished your application the program is likely to help you very shortly.

    The program is not re-funded yet. The bill has not been signed into law. (see "lapsed appropriations" on this page: https://www.sba.gov/funding-programs/loans/coronavirus-relief-options/paycheck-protection-program-ppp https://www.sba.gov/funding-programs/loans/coronavirus-relie... I am reading the narrative very differently. You think people are saying there shouldn't have been any bill like this? People are saying that the bill has failed to help small businesses. Which is just a fact.

      Fair enough. With that said I think the funds will be replenished in the next day or three. But I think "the bill has failed to help small businesses" is not accurate at all. It has failed to help enough small businesses.

        > It has failed to help enough small businesses. ... in large part because publicly-traded businesses have scooped up the funding.

    Thanks for giving me a heads up. Looks like we will get the money.
