Well you see, it’s really her fault because the Republicans wouldn’t agree to more. Because reasons and stuff. It’s ok to spend like drunken sailors when we’re handing out taxpayer funds to the wealthy, but helping people who actually need it?
Which takes us right back to my original post.
600.00 isn’t going to do much, this was just them rushing to do something before the end of the year justifying their own paychecks.
And they’ll do it again when September rolls around next year. Wait and see.
Maybe the trick is to vote for the side that takes less in the first place instead of crying about not getting it back.
Doubtful since the covid crises should long be over by then.
Still should have been a loan. Sorry, not sorry.
Because we have yet to lose our sanity?
Actually, its not your damn money. They haven’t even printed it yet.
RTchoke:Be grateful you peasants!!!
This is definitely a “let them eat cake” moment.
Congress is completely out of touch.
As is anyone who thinks that giving the people money that does not exist is a good idea.
WildRose:How is it, “our damned money”?
They aren’t taking it out of our pockets or accounts, it’s deficit spending that someone will have to pay for at some point more than a half century in the future.
Reduce military spending, increase tax on super wealthy. Start there.
Gotta love the rote lib response to spending.

Paid back mostly by people like me who aren’t eligible to get it.
Don’t worry, you wont live long enough to pay it back.
And neither will your Grandchildren.
After our measly taxes, the Federal Reserve.

Who funds the government?
Certainly not you. Not with $4 trillion (if this thing passes) deficit spending anyway.
Snow96: PurpnGold:This is for both sides by the way… even $1200 was way too low.
And what do you want the federal deficit to be?
Now that we’re giving money to Americans making less than 75000$ you care about deficit? It’s measley 600$.
$600 that the government does not have to give you. But hey, since they don’t have the money, they ought to give me more, right? What’s another trillion when we’re already $30 trillion in debt?
Did you ask that question when the Trump tax cuts were passed?
No, because tax cuts are very good for the economy. We live on what the economy produces, not on government largeness.
They always seem to find money to spend on foreign ventures or giving themselves pay raises. Funny how that works.
Do you see me defending politicians here?
$250 million to Palestinians?
It’s funny. Trump demanded that they give us 1200 per person. Moscow Mitch just drove the bus over him. Great job Senate Republicans.
$10M to Pakistan for “gender programs”?
