2000 a month forever...or until employment numbers get up to some arbitrary number.

I’m glad mom got a 1200 buck check but folks on SS, their income wasn’t affected. BUT prices went up for everything and we need to care for our elderly. One time thing...with all the trillions spent..that was a drop.

Why add 500 bucks a week to unemployment for so long?

It will be MUCH more than most on it make and they ain’t gonna be looking for work.

Even 250 but 500??!?!

Don’t want to think about the $$ stolen from small business fund

But we will find out in some years organized crime made a fortune.

So much for stress testing the banks.

They are over-extended, as are the Federal & (blue) State obligations.

A brief 4-week shutdown equivalent to France's annual summer vacation should not trigger a rush to pass $6-Trillion in bailouts. Were our country's public and private sector finances sustainably organized...

This situation remains ridiculous, and is clear evidence of decades-long government failure. When I see Mnuchin on TV I wonder how he keeps a straight face as he and Powell move to spike the Federal debt and money supply as a policy "solution." When business pundits offer repeated remarks like "Thank goodness policymakers are taking decisive steps," I LOL and think - "towards what!?" Hyperinflation and financial collapse.

A seasonal respiratory infection was used to further hollow out the US financial system.

Everything Austrian School economists have written has proven correct.

Thomas Jefferson was right too. "I sincerely believe... that banking establishments are more dangerous than standing armies."

This isn’t about who deserves bail out money. Its about getting X number of dollars issued at zero interest into circulation.

Trump is bankrupting the Federal Reserve. Many of these new dollars are not being collateralized by a US Treasury department debt instrument. They are being backed by a congressional resolution if you will that says the government may at some point in the future repay the loan.
In effect this stimulus is an unsecured loan. Trump has a plan. Trust the plan.
