    Meanwhile, I’ve got to fill out my census, or else they say they’ll be knocking on my door. I can’t help but think, maybe they should postpone it, along with everything else. Seems about as useless as the toilet paper commercials still running.

    The Small Business Administration on Thursday morning stopped taking applications for two emergency COVID-19 loan programs providing a financial lifeline to employers, racing through more than $345 billion in less than two weeks.


    Another $250 billion could be available to replenish loan funds; the White House and Republican and Democratic congressional leaders have yet to strike a deal.


    For now, the window closed on two programs employers jumped on to keep their organizations viable during government-mandated lockdowns: The the Paycheck Protection Program, designed to pump money to small businesses and nonprofits to cover payroll and other expenses and the Economic Injury Disaster Loans.


    A key feature of the PPP loans is they are, if used as intended, convertible to grants. The window to apply for the PPP loans opened April 3.


    On Thursday morning, the SBA said in a statement that due to a lapse in appropriations, the “SBA is unable to accept new applications at this time for the Paycheck Protection Program or the Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL)-COVID-19 related assistance program (including EIDL Advances) based on available appropriations funding.”


    “EIDL applicants who have already submitted their applications will continue to be processed on a first-come, first-served basis.”

    The President mentioned in one of his pressers the other day that the census will most likely be delayed.

    I am relieved the PPP funds are gone...sort of. This way, I don't have any reason to be tempted and jump through hoops and loops in hope to get it. It clears my mind....Besides, I think some fellows needed it more...those having real dilemmas of laying off people or not. For instance, a restaurant owner may not want to lay off his best chef.

    I applied through Kabbage it was super easy.

    They've asked me to answer additional questions and upload more documents three times so far.

    By the time they get my loan approved there's not going to be any money left though.

    Hopefully the government approves additional funding for the program.

    at the rate that the used vehicles are failing in a vertical chart, maybe they will park a 1992 3406 CAT 425 that no one knows how to drive anymore near my front stoop.
