Not to us. We do not need it. Give it to those that have lost jobs or had hour's cut back.
I don't need it either, but if they are going to hand it out to career welfare receiving unemployed people, then I want a check too. I am sick of this culture of giving to the non productive and taking from the productive. It used to be work hard and be rewarded. Now it is don't work and be rewarded. That's why so many don't work anymore. It is time we rewarded effort, not laziness.
If people are really off because of the virus, that's one thing. But if they are just career bums, no way do they deserve another handout.
I don't think they will give it to people on SS. They are giving it to people who lost their income.
They need to give it to everyone or no one. When the government picks and chooses, you can bet the choices are never fair. I'd be happy to see nothing, but not if welfare recipients and college kids living on student loan money, get $1000.
Terrible idea. Complete waste of money that will make no difference in the average persons life. This is frivolous spending that will do nothing but bury us all deeper, once the smoke clears. It's a feel good political pander bandaid for a bleed out wound.

What I saw was you needed a tax income of at least $2500 to get a payment.
Just nuts the amounts being tossed around by the GOP.
I expect Trump Inc. to be getting a nice check which will never be paid back.

Also, if they don’t give $$ (outright grants, not loans), there may not be local businesses to go back to work to when this is over. My froend’s son just opened up his own restaurant about 4 months ago after high-falluting cheffing at some other restaurants. I worry about small businesses like his that will/are experiencing bad times in addition to those who employees who have lost their livelihoods.
I say screw it. Give it the 2 weeks or whatever and then back to business as usual.
Can't crash the world because some old people are gonna die. The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few. Quarantine and isolate old people and anyone with a compromised health situation. Everyone else recovers with no big deal.
