COMMON SENSE would dictate that those who receive SS checks due to retirement are NOT out of work due to the panda-mike (pandemic). There is no reason to give them a check. It’s not going to help them ‘get back to work’.
it kills you though that all these people are going to and get the check including my mother? Common Sense would dictate that if you own a business s*** happen so **** you. And if you have a job s*** happens so *** you.
So *** you if you are a worker :-)
Constitution doesn’t say anything about a guarantee check for anybody so stop crying like a b**** about old people that need the money that I’m sure I could use it.

My husband and I both receive SS benefits and I’ve been of the same opinion as you since this shebang began. There have been several threads here on the subject and hardly anyone agreed with me. We are not out of work, we are not looking for work, we are not unemployed, we are using the same $$$ we always have to pay our bills and buy food...so our children/grandchildren/great grandchildren are going to pay the bills and people think that’s ok?
Like I just said in another post - I’d like to see those faceless people who make up these rules.. Common sense does not exist!
I was told by a FReeper that we are supposed to spend the $$ - that’s what stimulus means - stimulate the economy...well, sorry - but I put it in the bank! I guess we should spend like our government spends - RECKLESSLY - spend it on something just for the sake of spending it? Too late for old codgers to even think of such a thing!
Common sense would dictate that those who lost their jobs qualify for unemployment insurance and food stamps and should not receive a stimulus check, according to your reasoning.
