Not you ALL, just those who pay taxes. Half of American adults pay no income tax.

But, no checks to residents of states who have elected Senators who interfere with the judicial nominations using the "blue" tag...

As an amendment to the bill, append a list of nominees for approval at the same time...

Or something... Let's start using the same type of tactics the communists use against us in congress...

I get $0 - but that’s ok

most of it will goto:
1) savings accounts (will never be spent) or brokerage accounts
2) booze, ciggies, casinos (maybe ammo)

In Japan, they are doing similar (around $1200)

I hope these Trump checks translate to votes :)

So, my wife works for a small company and doesn’t make that threshold, but my senior role elsewhere pays much better.

We file jointly. Does she get a check?

If I am offered a package (not really optional) and have no income in 90 days, have I missed out?

Truthfully, we don’t need the money, as many people REALLY do, as we are long-working folks who learned to save.

It’s a nice gesture that’s not going to help if this runs for months.

Be nice if the gummint suspended mortgage payments for the jobless and stopped foreclosures until the dust settles.

The task is huge when the problem is this big.

Trump just lost out vote. He’s taxing us to buy the votes of other people.

With the economy in the tank, and no rule of law, there is no difference between him and a democrat.

The logic going around is that it’s better to spend a few trillion and have Trump for another 4 years than not spend it and have biden ruin us.

I go back and forth on it.

I’d like to think enough Americans are smart enough to vote for Trump either way.

I’d LIKE TO...but that’s not the reality.

He probably needs to do this to win in November, I think.

I could be wrong.
