A majority of Americans support the idea of new stimulus checks to combat inflation, according to a poll conducted exclusively for Newsweek.

The survey found 63 percent of respondents said they agree—with 42 percent saying they "strongly agree"—when asked if the federal government should issue new stimulus checks to tackle inflation.

I imagine all of the Vacationers are running out of money with the gas and grocery prices as high as they are. They’re going to need more government “stimulus checks” if they’re going to be able to continue vacationing as their post-dempanic jobs.

Somebody needs to tell the America for Dummies readers that it’s the “stimulus checks” that are causing inflation. That and the millions of new refreegeez freeloaders the RATS are dragging across the border every month. Talk about a threat to RAT Democrazy, dragging all these socialist freeloaders across the border isn’t helping, IDIOTS.

Since I am black now, I should get 2 checks.

42% demonstrate that they’re incredibly ignorant about how the economy actually works.

They’re also almost 100% democrats.

Your theory makes sense and thank you for not regurgitating the usual Pavlovian responses given so far. :)

More Chinese And Reefer Economies Stimulus insanity to accelerate inflation even faster than the first couple rounds.

Actually it was all the money they spent.....including the stimulus checks.

Fixed it. More deficit spending, more stimulus checks, more inflation.

So f*cking stupid.

Printing money IS the problem.

[DoughtyOne]

I haven’t even heard of this new stimulus.

Still, they have a poll on it.

This makes it pretty clear what’s going on.

Yup,good ole weird Al.😁

If it had been the stimulus checks alone it would have increased inflation slightly,but all the other money they spent is what has caused the massive inflation that we are experiencing now.😱
