Two Democratic lawmakers are proposing a bill that would provide $2,000 monthly payments to Americans until employment levels return to pre-coronavirus levels.
With $2000 a month we will NEVER return to unemployment levels pre COVID. I guess that’s the plan.
FWIW that’s only $8 trillion a year if all Americans get $2000 a month.

Yeah, it just continuous indefinitely like they are in the Soviet Union today. LOL

My goodness. I may seek a Dr to approve disability and I could make 5-6K per month.

The monthly payments of at least $2,000 would go to everyone 16 or older who makes less than $130,000 annually. Married couples making a combined $260,000 would receive at least $4,000.
Isn’t this anyone outside of the top 5% income bracket? That’s a $2k check for 95% of Americans over 16.

IF, they were to really do this, then I would expect "things" we buy would go up accordingly. Milk at 20 dollars a gallon etc... It would be a "NET 0"!

You can’t really own either of those. If they want it they can take it by eminent domain or by taxing you out of it. It’s all an illusion
