Eh, I can't blame the Dems for this one. Have you seen the proposals? The Dems voted against the Republican stimulus package because it's too corporate-friendly, doesn't provide enough direct relief to workers, and includes a $500B fund with little oversight. They didn't block it because they don't want to hand out checks. Rather, they want to hand out a whole lot more cash. The Republican plan includes a single, one-time $1200 payment; the Dems are talking about monthly payments of $2000/person (plus $1000 per child) for however long it takes until the pandemic fades. They also want lengthier unemployment provisions.
Oh boy another "this is my team so I hate the other team" person. I love it when people don't even recognize politicians in general don't even care about you. They are almost all rich and want to stay rich and that doesn't happen by helping the common masses.
And your car will look absolutely great on the trips to the grocery store. Crazy times.
Well, I hope this doesn't only apply to the little stimulus check that happens once in a blue moon. I hope everyone gives any and all excess money to someone who needs it. Don't we?
We spend tens of millions a year locally and nationally on parts/supplies/out side labor. Some of the money starts with corps and works its way down to these mom and pop shops- we buy our custom rubber products from a company locally, they have 45-55 employees there.. These large companies roll over and the snowball effect grows massively with them. God knows what would happen if ford, gm, GE all went under right now.
How about dumping it straight into a student loan?I see some people misunderstand "stimulus".Stimulus is not welfare. Its not really intended for the recipients (although it helps
Paying off debts is a good idea. While you will not release more money to the market until the loan is paid off and your monthly payments are over, at least the banks will have more cash for other loans.
to spend the stimulus cash on Ali Baba. 
Unless one prefers to rather stimulate the Chinese economy.
True. They are all guilty. But why do they have to disagree now when the stimulus is needed? Shows they don't give a fk about anyone but themselves.
Who goes to grocery stores in such times? I practice social distancing and go high to breathe mountain air, when they go low. Flatlands are disastrous for the lungs, higher elevations are good.
