During the campaign for the two Georgia Senate races, Joe Biden repeatedly promised to pass $2,000 stimulus checks if the Democrats won. After they did, the administration argued that $2,000 really meant $1,400 in addition to the $600 that had already gone out in the December rescue package.
Whether that is true or not, now Biden is inarguably breaking his promise. Under pressure from moderate Senate Democrats, he has reportedly agreed to cut down the formula under which the checks will be sent out. In the previous packages, the amount started phasing out at $75,000 in income for individuals and $150,000 for joint filers, and vanished entirely at $100,000 and $200,000 respectively (as of 2019). Now the phase-out will start start in the same place but end at $80,000 for singles and $160,000 for couples...

Everyone wants to take more out of the pot, than they put in. Greed. It is the only sin we needed to destroy us.
The real reason they have the capitol locked down.
Your statement is true, except it was your money to begin with. As it is now, this so called stimulus is just another wealth redistribution....
Agreed generally, though I’ll take a tax refund however I can get it.
Under the old plan billions went overseas and to other non filers projects

Apparently the American people have become nothing more then prostitutes.. Give them a couple of bucks and you can do whatever you want to them... :(
That’s progress. Let’s force these political basturd s to restore our human rights and constitutional liberties, get the h out of our lives and faces, let people get back to work, and stop trying to force everyone into a state of helpless dependency on them. End welfare and. “ free money” giveaway programs now except for the genuinely disabled and transfer it back to the states which are the proper general sovereigns for running it.

“You’ll have to vote for me to see what you get”
If they wait until the earnings information from the 2020 tax returns are in, the number of recipients below these numbers will grow hugely.
So, if you made more than this on your 2019 return, and got destroyed by politicians in 2020, you’re screwed.
Not as long as they have the dominion voting systems in place they don’t.
I assure you everyone in the family puts more in than they take out.
So instead of trimming this horse crap of a wasteful bill; he’s just gonna cut who gets the checks and the wasteful grift will stay?
Personally, I don’t see how anyone whose income has remained untouched by “the pandemic” or by any government action related to the “pandemic” should (as far as “need”) be eligible for a “stimulus” check/credit. It is only those whose incomes have been directly upset by pandemic related actions that should be considered “in need” and thus eligible for these payments (if they “must” be made at all).
The best “stimulus” would be for all states to do as Texas and just get everything open and going again.
All of our children and grandchildren got the first rounds of money. None of them were affected at all by Covid. They all kept their jobs. Husband and I make too much money for the stimulus. I don’t understand why people who already get a government check in the form of welfare or social security rated a stimulus check. Their status did not change. They lost no money. The only ones who should have gotten money were those who lost their jobs and their businesses due to the government crack downs. This is such a joke.
This.😒
The latest bill isn’t about stimulus it’s about funneling money to blue states.
Tell me about it - 2020 will be first yaer I’ll pay over 6 digits in taxes all in and this year will be 30% or more above that.
