ore than two million people have also signed onto an effort that calls on Congress to deliver $2,000 monthly stimulus checks to eligible Americans until the pandemic is over. The Change.org petition directly addresses the House and the Senate, urging both congressional chambers to draft a bill that would provide “$2,000 payments for adults and $1,000 payment for kids” until the pandemic subsides

The only problem with other people’s money (and ‘government’ money), is that, it all eventually goes away.

The last stimulus money will have to be monopoly money. It’s a lost easier to produce.

News Flash to the senators/morons: the Pandemic has BEEN over from the analysis of the false positives and creative cause of death numbers reported. It was over in July 2020, in fact. But that’s another whole post.

Universal income camouflaged as the “pandemic” demands we keep paying people to sit on their rears.

At this rate, folks will be getting more ‘stimulus payments’ than they pay for their annual income tax from their jobs.

So I can finally afford to live on Boardwalk.

But only as a Section 8 after qualifying as an indigent.

Until then it's back to Baltic or Mediterranean as a renter.

Everybody is going to have to get money from somewhere, if the supply chain problem doesn’t get better. Lots of parts for all vehicles are becoming harder to get a hold of and prices are rising.

Why not? We are already in a death spiral a this point. If this gets us to the point where we can finally ‘reset the nation faster, I’m all for it.and with the money, I’ll be able to stock up on bullets and other supplies.

That’s about a half a trillion a month. Why not issue everybody a rainbow and a unicorn while they’re at it.

I believe it was Barney Frank who said exactly that.
