Mark Cuban calls for households to receive two $1,000 stimulus checks per month

Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban said Wednesday American households should receive two $1,000 stimulus checks per month for the next two months.

Cuban first proposed the idea in May and maintained the same notion that “Those without [help] are struggling badly,” he told CNBC. “We need to get them help.”

The coronavirus pandemic has brought devastating outcomes to many families struggling to provide for themselves and loved ones as the national unemployment average remained above 10.2 percent from March until recent reports from August show it fell to 8.4 percent, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported.

"In addition, because this will take time, we need to consider an interim spending stimulus program. All 128m households could get a $1k check every 2 weeks for the next 2 months that MUST BE SPENT WITHIN 10 DAYS OF RECEIPT OR IT EXPIRES. This "use it or lose it" prog will — Mark Cuban (@mcuban) May 17, 2020"

Cuban said he believes households with funds to spend within ten days could help stimulate local economies and business demands while dampening the strain of potential losses the pandemic caused for families.

Agree. Many of these punks who made fortunes here are mostly socialist/Dems.

Thanks, Mark, but I don’t need the government buying me two new ARs per month.

Now, on the other hand cases of 5.56...

Many times when this guy opens his mouth, I think of his
wealth and wonder how the hell he became so wealthy being
that stupid.

I know the guy must be pretty savvy in some ways, but in
others he’s just dumb as a rock.

This is eventually what happens when you have a completely fiat money supply.

We need a return to gold-backed money, out of the hands of social engineers and politicians - or the Left will soon finish the takeover of this country.
