Trying to reason with jackasses is assine.
The Senate should simply pass a bill with a liability limitation and $200 per week plus a 20% of the state amount add on effective for eight weeks after enactment.
The $1200 stuff should not be given out to avoid another drug OD epidemic and because the 20% add-on.
The payroll protection scheme should not be continued. People can file for unemployment without administratively overloading unemployment systems.
I’d rather do the $1,200 than the extra unemployment stuff, although to your point maybe it should be $400 a month for the next 3 months or something. No reason to encourage people to not work like extra unemployment. (full disclosure: I’m neither eligible for the $1,200 a person b/c of my income nor am I unemployed). At least with the $1,200, government isn’t picking winners and losers besides the people like me that make top 5-10% income.
