1) Stimulus checks are meant to be spent. Thats why calling it that was stupid. 2) It's their $. Minding your own business is less stressful

You're right, the $500 in medical bills and $150 I spent on food was a dumb way to stimulate the economy.

Mine is going in the bank. If I can get approved for UI it'll be used to pay off my car and buy FF7R. If I cant get approved that's rent 2x

That..... that..... can I say there's got to be something wrong with that.
Yes. It's wrong that we've set up an economy that REQUIRES useless consumer spending to run. But that's the hole we've dug for ourselves.
BCOH
But hey the Dems want to institute a guaranteed income if they win the presidency. So they got that going for them.

Think of the progress our country could make without the partisan us and them mentality. Partisanship seriously hinders progress.
Partisan has it's place. If everyone in goverment said OK lets do what he said; what kind of goverment would we have?

The best part is seeing all the Lib's triggered via the down votes.
Don’t you find that mentality to be exhausting? Mentally and emotionally?
