“It would be simpler to cut taxes for the rest of the year.”
Many people won’t have much of an income this year so cutting taxes isn’t going to help them at all.
The bill might stink but its either that or President Biden which will cost the country much, much more.
“Many people won’t have much of an income this year”
I hear what you’re saying ... and the government wants them to see checks as some sort of compensation for this fiasco I suppose. I get it.
But there are a lot of people that will won’t see any reduction in income this year. Many in management and such are working at home and carrying on just fine.
(so why are they getting guvmint money if their income is not affected?).
Election year politics by an incumbent President running for reelection plus the usual suspects.
