Oh yeah! They’ll take their printed money and buy a new TV, and then GRIPE because there is no sportsball games on!

I don’t think so. Not this time. Lots of gig economy people are out of work and don’t have sugar daddy big corporations to pay them for time off.

Millions are going to be out of a job, so I doubt what you say is true for the vast majority.

So what?
What good is money if people
can't spend it the way they wish?
Oh that's right, everyone should put it in
their savings accounts so the get 0.00001% interest
at the end of the year.

Like any entitlement, Democrats (mostly) will fight to make it permanent. It will become a campaign attack on Republican candidates. “He’s trying to take $1000 OUT OF YOUR POCKET!”

Yep. In the 1970’s, I went to college at a school in a lower income area of the country. I can still remember people buying groceries with food stamps, then peeling off a few twenties to buy the week’s supply of beer, cigarettes, and lottery tickets.
