BAD idea IMHO.

and this is different from the Mormon’s plan?

Bad, BAD idea. Trillions in spending/QE already earmarked for the Wu Flu and it’s only tuesday. We’ll do this all again in a few months when the Housing market craters 2008 style and banks start to fail.

No...good idea. I don't need it, but people like my son and daughter who work in the hospitality/bar-restaurant industry will have a difficult time making car payments, rent and so forth due to the shutdown of eateries, pubs.

I think if you make under a certain income...this would help.

After all, illegal aliens receive up to $40K in some cases for housing, food stamps, childcare assistance do they not?

Help Americans.

“BAD idea IMHO.”

I disagree, It’s a good idea. Think of all the people that are going to lose their jobs as everything shuts down. The financial ramifications are unbelievable. Rent, mortgages, cars don’t get paid. The whole financial system and economy breaks down.

Yes, there is a “moral hazard” aspect to this and so it must be strictly limited to this difficult time and then done away with.

I think Trump and Mnuchin get this.
