You're correct. The whole point of the PPP program, which people seem to be missing, is the program is to act as a buffer in front of the unemployment system.

You're correct. The whole point of the PPP program, which people seem to be missing, is the program is to act as a buffer in front of the unemployment system. The Feds are basically front running unemployment claims by 8 weeks by giving 'free money' to businesses to pay their employees for another 8 weeks. The taxpayers are going to pay for this whether it is big business that got the funds or small businesses. It's either through this program or via the overwhelmed unemployment system.
