What can you reasonably do with this info
Local marketing? idk, just thought it was neat to put it on a map. I find it interesting to see the businesses that people in my neighborhood are running

Re: Search PPP Loans by Zip Code
#52So many loans in my small town! Since covid it seems like there is so much new money in the town, I guess now I know where it came from. No way all this was spent on legitimate payroll.
I had an LLC but didn't get a loan, I feel like a sucker but, at least I don't feel dirty.

#53I can’t believe there were only 3 loans in San Francisco. But one of them is a whopping $661,500.00 to a cloud communications company. Such a joke! Covid ruined our local family business. We didn’t see a cent despite applying left and right.
Way more, the tool seems to just show a few options until you open the filters and select “search this area.”

#54$755B was forgiven. I know that there are many benefits for this program but I cannot resist comparing this with the NSF budget. This is equal to about 75.5 years of the current NSF budget (assuming constant budget but unlikely as there is planned deep cuts). If we assume that the budget will increase 5% to adjust for inflation (unlikely too) then that would about 32yrs. Not that I'm comparing in absolute usefulness.…
> $755B was forgiven
I have almost $50k in that number. (1099 income.) It was a waste.
A friend was a senior staffer negotiating that bill. We were together, in 2020, when these bills were drafted and passed. My friend aimed to exempt people like me from forgiveness. I, of course, didn't mind the free money, but know that for my $50k there are the e.g. Ciprianis borrowing millions only to transfer it, immediately, to their personal accounts. Even selfishly, I was a net payer.
They never managed to exempt me. So I applied for the loans, got them, never paid a dime, applied for forgiveness, got it and then walked away. (I didn't fire myself, nor even cut my hours!) Granted, these sums are peanuts compared with the bonanza I'm about to reap with Trump's TCJA mark 2. But at least that's plainly a giveaway to the wealthy.

It’s hard to imagine that people really believe world leadership in science is just a meaningless line item to be culled to make political points, but here we are. It will definitely be worth it to someone in the long run, but undoubtedly not the American people.
Our budget, all of it, needs an audit, the people have complained about government waste and demanded an audit for ages . We are finally getting that long desired audit. Spread the entire budget out, all expenses line by line for all to see, and may they survive or be culled based solely upon their merits in the eyes of the American people. If the NSF's expenses are justifiable, demonstrate it in witness of the Ameri…
So how about his tax plan that’ll increase debt by trillions per year over the next decade? Think that’s smart too?
Anyways, this isn’t an audit, and it’s certainly not open. A billionaire and several interns are behind closed doors picking things, NOT the American people. I don’t get why you’re ignoring that, everything Trump is doing points to capturing the government as a techno-oligarchy, not balancing the budget like you claim. I simply don’t understand why you’re ignoring the evidence of your own eyes and ears and actually believing the crap these traitors are saying.

Almost all the loan availability were spoken for within hours. The grifters got there first, and the people who really needed the help often got stiffed. The Catholic Church took PPP loans and used it to pay off all the lawsuits from their priests raping kids. https://www.wmlawyers.com/2020/07/sex-abuse-victims-outraged...
>and the people who really needed the help often got stiffed. Just one anecdata, but we (family business) were "people who really needed the help" and got approved for PPP, both times. You needed to be fairly timely on applying because of the absurd demand, though. We had to file paperwork including our payroll, income/loss sheets and more with our bank (not SBA) who actually did most of the groundwork because any PP…
I thought the free market was important, but you seem to just want handouts. Shouldn’t your business have failed if it wasn’t resilient? Why was your family business more important than any of the families who lost everything during covid? What hypocrites you MAGA folks are!

Trump made sure that there was no mechanism to track any illegal activity related PPP grant program.
Re: Search PPP Loans by Zip Code
#58I for one remain incredibly grateful that they shoveled money out the door, and imperfectly helped lots of small businesses provide some cash to some employees. If they had sat around worrying about the critics or trying to prevent any possible fraud before sending out the money, everything in our country would have frozen up that much more.

Re: Search PPP Loans by Zip Code
#60You know… I'm grateful that they moved quickly and decisively to bridge businesses through that time. We'd all be worse off without this having happened. I'm willing to accept a certain amount of waste for the importance of speed.
