The stimulus bills will be the biggest scam in the history of the world. When you offer “free” money there will be an unlimited demand, and people quickly find ways to have the system.

Actually yes they do.

Both CARES Acts and the one Biden will sign soon, include unemployment benefits to 1099 workers. These workers don’t usually get benefits at all, because they don’t pay into the system.

We have a storage business here in Texas and we are getting one to four of these a day. Some come in unsealed envelopes.

For each one we have to go online and report that these people never worked for us.

Another job for our failed DOJ and Fat Boy Idiots (FBI) to bring to justice. Furget about it
