The stimulus is the right thing. We need it. It’s all the other shit rolled into that sucks

We don't need stimulus.

If $1400 makes a difference to you, you need to get a better job.

I know literally no one who is going to die without $1000.

Americans pull themselves up by their bootstraps. Communists look for handouts.

People around here are hurting. Many haven’t worked for a year now. They need help. Kids are going hungry. This isn’t how the USA is supposed to be. Are you gonna tear up your check then comrade?

First the insult than I’ll talk about you point.

  1. Go back to Reddit you liberal shill and fucking cuck.

  2. The $1400 will make absolutely no difference because kids have been eating through the SNAP program and school lunch program. If they have been starving, it’s because guardians have been buying lobster and shit with SNAP. No amount of stimulus will change that.

The 1400 is about throwing us a bone. The claimed purpose was to pour money into an economy to give it a temporary kickstart. However, with any jumpstart, you cannot run anything by kicking it. You’ve got to fuel it with something sustainable. A stimulus is not that.

If it was about the people, it would have been sent out regularly like a UBI or negative income tax. (Look up Milton Friedman.)

The USA has always been about liberty, not gibs. Communities are where we are to help each other. The country was about trade, not authority.

  1. Finally, everything in point two was for others to read because your entire point is moot, built on a huge logical fallacy. You appeal to emotion without a balance of sound logic. You went straight to an pathetic “think of the children” and moved the goalpost in such a pathetic way. Then you asked a pathetic question (are you going to tear up the check?) which goes against his entire point that the money makes no difference. Therefore, cashing it won’t change anything on a macro level either. After all, that was the original purpose. Buy some extra survival equipment!

This shows you are either a liberal shill (if so GTFO) or a younger PEDE (if so this will help you grow some skin and I know you will be alright, keep learning) or a recently disenfranchised liberal and new conservative. I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt and I hope you’ll stay a while and learn a few new things.
