This is just so stupid. That supposed $350 billion for "small businesses" allowed up to $10 million loans. WTF? How can you be "small business" and spend $10 million over 2 months? https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-04-22/jpmorgan-commercial-clients-beat-out-smaller-ones-for-sba-loans … All of the money just went to large businesses, not small.
Harvard got $9 million: https://www.forbes.com/sites/susanadams/2020/04/21/why-is-harvard-getting-9-million-in-stimulus-money-when-it-has-a-40-billion-endowment/#12b7c91b6f00 … And they have a $40 BILLION dollar endowment. Again, GFYS Harvard, you don't need it. I suspect Harvard actually had employees embezzle its endowment and they're trying to refill it Bernie Madoff style.

To fix this program for "small businesses" it should be structured like this: 1. Max allowed is $100k. 2. No lawyers allowed. If you had a lawyer fill out your paperwork you pay it back. 3. Priority goes from least to greatest by number of employees you employ.

Honestly though we all knew it wasn't for "small business". It was always a clever way to hand money to large and giant corporations that have the lobbyists and lawyers.
