To rub even more salt into this wound is that inflation will kick in and cause those $600 to be worth a lot less than what many will think.

Suggestion: spend that stimulus money on something valuable or useful before inflation wipes it all out.

Inflation is not going to kick in any time soon, the economy is in the shitter thanks to the extended shut down

The "Fed" hasn't stopped printing money during this so yes, inflation is still going to happen. Cost of living has actually gone up slightly. Check your bills, like food prices.

Printing money and having it held in reserve does not necessarily cause inflation, particularly when the world in general is in a recession
