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

Used as intended. The point is to stimulate the economy. If they use it to pay down credit card debt, the effect is lost.

If by stimulate the economy you mean by groceries and save for bills then sure, consider the economy stimulated.

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.

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?
