Seriously. Direct deposit will come faster so it's more practical, and there's no issue of the mail possibly getting lost. But man, I want to frame the gosh darn thing.

Definitely more practical.

First round of 80 million citizens receiving their paper check in the mail this week would cost 44 million in postage alone.

The IRS noted the cost is about $1 per paper check and 10 cents per DD.

Yeah, very true. Didn't even think about postage costs.

If you pay taxes, you get no check

If you make over $99K, you don’t get a relief check. So if you live in someplace like California where 55% of you pay goes to taxes and housing costs are 3x normal, you are screwed.

Working hard to make a good living is a little depressing. You get no benefits from the government, but you have to pay for everyone else’s benefit. Government only works for the unmotivated and the super rich.

The same shit-ass Democrats who bitched about the 10k limit to SALT deductions in high-tax states had no problem with a $75k phase-out and people who make $100k or more getting NOTHING.

They never cared about "the Middle class". They only ever cared about poor people (those who make <$75k) and the rich (those making ~$500k, the highest tax bracket), and the rest of us are just garbage to them.

They don't want us investing, they don't want us starting businesses, they don't want us to do shit but CONSUME and be brainwashed so "hopefully" our kids are stupid jackasses who roll back into the working class instead of repeating our mistake of trying to get ahead and (shudder) join the ranks of the elite.

Nothing rich people hate more than nouveau riche people.
